Figure 7-16. vdd Voltage/IR Drop [All Layers]
Dynamic analysis of this PCB design for the CORE power domain determined the vdd decoupling
capacitor loop inductance and impedance vs frequency analysis shown below. As you can see, the loop
inductance values ranged from 0.97 –1.75nH and were less than maximum 2.0nH recommended.
NOTE
Comparing loop inductances for capacitors at different distances from the SoC’s input power
balls shows an 18% reduction for caps placed closer. This was derived by averaging the
inductances for the 3 caps with distances over 800mils (Avg LL = 1.33nH) vs the 3 caps with
distances less than 600mils (Avg LL = 1.096nH).
