Abstract
An integrated circuit device with a single via layer, in which the via layer includes selectable via sites and/or jumpers. The selectable via sites and/or placement of jumpers may be used to configure and interconnect components and circuitry between distinct layers of multilayer circuits. In some implementations, selectively enabling via sites by filling via openings and/or using jumpers may implement a single-ended termination circuit with a first via configuration, a Thevenin termination circuit with a second via configuration, and/or a differential termination circuit with a third configuration.
