Original Abstract Submitted

An electronic device may include wireless circuitry having one or more radio-frequency amplifiers coupled to differential coupled lines. The differential coupled lines may provide routing and impedance matching for the radio-frequency amplifiers with minimal power loss. The differential coupled lines may include a first pair of coupled lines and a second pair of coupled lines. The first pair of coupled lines may include a first conductive routing path coupled to a first voltage line and a second conductive routing path routed along the first conductive routing path and coupled to a second voltage line. The second pair of coupled lines may include a third conductive routing path coupled to the first voltage line and a fourth conductive routing path routed along the third conductive routing path and coupled to the second voltage line.
