Abstract
An electronic package is adapted to be coupled in a single-ended configuration and in a differential configuration. The package provides a characteristic impedance of approximately 50 ohms when configured in a single-ended mode and also when configured in the differential mode. The package includes multiple terminals, which are coupled to ground, S, and {overscore (S)}. The package may be configured externally by the user for either mode. The package may also be fabricated to be coupled in either the differential mode or single-ended mode for user specific applications.
