Abstract:
A differential trace structure reducing the magnitude of low frequency attenuation is disclosed. The trace structure is formed on a printed circuit board. A pair of differential traces connects a signal receiver and a signal transmitter. A passive equalizer has a first shunt coupled to one of the pair of differential traces; and a second shunt coupled to the other one of the pair of differential traces. The passive equalizer has an inductor and a resistor coupled in series to the shunts. For low frequency signals, the passive equalizer behaves as a shunt resistance to the pair of differential traces.

Claim (Index 8):
A passive equalizer to reduce the attenuation of low frequency signals on a differential trace pair comprising a first trace and a second trace on a printed circuit board, the passive equalizer consisting of:\n a first shunt having a first end and a second end, the first end of the first shunt coupled to the first trace of the pair of differential traces on the printed circuit board; a second shunt having a first end and a second end, the first end of the second shunt coupled to the second trace of the pair of differential traces on the printed circuit board; one or more inductors coupled between the second end of the first shunt and the second end of the second shunt; and one or more resistors coupled in series with the one or more inductors between the second end of the first shunt and the second end of the second shunt, wherein the one or more inductors and the one or more resistors behave as a shunt resistance to the pair of differential traces for low frequency signals.
