Patent ID: 8426743

Claim:
An electronic device assembly comprising: an electrically conductive structure on or in a substrate, the electrically conductive structure comprising: a first pair of electrically conductive traces extending substantially parallel to one another in a first plane; a second pair of electrically conductive traces extending substantially parallel to one another in a second plane; an electrically conductive first interconnecting member extending between and electrically communicating with an end of a first trace of the first pair and an end of a first trace of the second pair; and an electrically conductive second interconnecting member extending between and electrically communicating with an end of a second trace of the first pair and an end of a second trace of the second pair, the first interconnecting member at least partially surrounding the second interconnecting member, wherein at least a portion of the second interconnecting member is positioned between portions of the first interconnecting member; a transmitting device configured to transmit a differential signal through the electrically conductive structure, the differential signal applied between the electrically conductive traces of the first pair, between the first interconnecting member and the second interconnecting member, and between the electrically conductive traces of the second pair; and a receiving device configured to receive the differential signal transmitted by the transmitting device.
