LAYOUT RECOMMENDATIONS
DFN-6L Evaluation Board
The following guidelines are to assist you with a performance optimized PCB design:
Signal Integrity and Termination
Considerations
- Keep traces short!
- Trace = Inductor. With a capacitive load this equals
ringing!
- Long trace = Transmission Line. Without proper
termination this will cause reflections ( looks like
ringing ).
- Design long traces as “striplines” or “microstrips”
with defined impedance.
- Match trace at one side to avoid reflections
bouncing back and forth.
Decoupling and Power Supply
Considerations
- Place decoupling capacitors as close as possible to
the VDD pin(s) to limit noise from the power supply
- Multiple VDD pins should be decoupled separately
for best performance.
- Addition of a ferrite bead in series with VDD can
help prevent noise from other board sources
- Value of decoupling capacitor is frequency
dependant. Typical values to use are 0.1µF for
designs using crystals < 50MHz and 0.01µF for
designs using crystals > 50MHz.
Typical CMOS termination
Place Series Resistor as close as possible to CMOS output
