A tuning structure to mitigate a capacitive discontinuity in an integrated circuit (IC) package includes an electrical conductor having a first end, a second end, and a conductor body between the first end and the second end. The first end is electrically coupled to a signal via, and the second end electrically coupled to an IC package core via cap. The electrical conductor is disposed substantially coplanar with the core via cap, and the conductor body is disposed along an outer perimeter of the core via cap. The second end is coupled to the via cap at a contact location. The contact location is determined based on a measurement of a performance metric associated with the transmission path through the IC package core, the core via cap, the electrical conductor, and the signal via.
