APPLICATION INFORMATION
SLWS144 – FEBRUARY 2005
PC Board Layout Notes
1. Leave the LOOP pin unconnected.
2. Vpp is used only in manufacturing (for die ID). Attach Vpp via a pull-down resistor to GND.
3. SYNC_A and SYNC_B are input synchronization signals. SYNC_OUT is only needed to synchronize multiple
GC1115s, or if exact notification of a GC1115-internal event is needed (such as when a snapshot RAM
capture ends, or when the software timer count reaches zero). Wire SYNC_A, SYNC_B, and SYNC_OUT_
to test points so they can be observed on a scope or logic analyzer.
4. During chip start-up, TRST must be pulled low and then high, or the GC1115 will not reset. A
general-purpose pin on the microprocessor or DSP that controls the GC1115 can do this operation. All other
JTAG signals are no-connects
5. Place power supply bypass caps on the back side of the board if possible.
Suggested Test Points:
• IN_CLK, OUT_CLK
• a few IN_A, IN_B, OUT_A, and OUT_B pins
• SYNC_A, SYNC_B, SYNC_OUT
• CS, RD, WR, plus a few A[ ] and D[ ] pins.
Power Connections
The PLL supplies should connect to dedicated pads with filtering as shown in Figure 18.

Figure 18. Power-Supply Filter
The PLL's analog supply wires
• should be 30 µm or wider and located in metal level 2, 3, or 4
• should be routed directly to the PLL's analog supply pads
• should avoid crossing or running parallel to any other supply or signal wires
