Integrated connector modules for extending transformer bandwidth with mixed-mode coupling using a substrate inductive device

An integrated connector module, comprising:

• a connector housing having a plurality of substrate inductive devices disposed therein, at least one of the substrate inductive devices comprising:
• a substrate comprising a plurality of via-in-via connections and a plurality of single via connections, the plurality of via-in-via connections each comprising an inner via and an outer via separated from the inner via by a non-conductive material;
• and
• a toroidal core;
• wherein the plurality of single via connections and some of the plurality of the via-in-via connections are disposed on an external periphery of the toroidal core, and other ones of the plurality of via-in-via connections are disposed on an internal periphery of the toroidal core;
• and
• wherein the plurality of via-in-via connections and the plurality of single via connections are configured to correct an inductive/capacitive ratio of the at least one of the substrate inductive devices.

• a toroidal core disposed adjacent to the via-in-via connections and the single via connections;
• a first trace which joins at least a portion of a first via-in-via connection disposed on an inner periphery of the toroidal core to a first one of the single via connections disposed on an outer periphery of the toroidal core;
• and
• a second trace which joins at least a portion of the first via-in-via connection disposed on the inner periphery of the toroidal core to a second one of the single via connections disposed on the outer periphery of the toroidal core, the first trace and the second trace being configured to at least partially overlap.
