Classification: CPC H | IPC H

Claim 10:
11. An electronic device comprising:
a dielectric substrate having stacked dielectric layers;
a contact pad on a surface of the dielectric substrate;
a radio-frequency component mounted to the contact pad;
a radio-frequency transmission line path having a signal trace embedded in the dielectric substrate, wherein the radio-frequency transmission line path and the radio-frequency component are configured to convey radio-frequency signals; and
impedance matching structures that are embedded in the dielectric substrate and that couple the signal trace to the contact pad, wherein the impedance matching structures comprise a set of conductive vias, a first via pad having a first lateral area, and a second via pad having a second lateral area that is different from the first lateral area.
