High-frequency circuit wiring skills in PCB design

High-frequency circuits tend to have high integration and high wiring density. The use of multi-layer boards is both necessary for wiring and an effective means to reduce interference. In the PCB Layout stage, a reasonable selection of the printed board size of a certain number of layers can make full use of the intermediate layer to set the shielding, better achieve the near grounding, and effectively reduce the parasitic inductance and shorten the transmission length of the signal, and at the same time All of these methods are advantageous for the reliability of high frequency circuits by reducing the crosstalk of signals, etc. in magnitude. In the same material, the four-layer board is 20dB lower than the noise of the double-panel. However, there is also a problem. The higher the half-layer of the PCB, the more complicated the manufacturing process and the higher the unit cost, which requires the PCB to be carried out. In Layout, in addition to selecting the appropriate number of layers of PCB board, it is necessary to carry out reasonable component layout planning and use the correct wiring rules to complete the design.

1. The less alternating between the lead layers between the pins of the high-frequency circuit device, the better.

The so-called "the least alternating between the layers of the leads is better" means that the fewer vias (Via) used in the component connection process, the better. A via can bring about a distributed capacitance of about 0.5pF, and reducing the number of vias can significantly increase speed and reduce the possibility of data errors.

2. The shorter the lead between the pins of the high-frequency circuit device, the better.

The radiant intensity of the signal is proportional to the length of the trace of the signal line. The longer the high-frequency signal lead, the easier it is to couple to the component close to it, so for clocks such as signals, crystal, DDR data, High-frequency signal lines such as LVDS lines, USB lines, and HDMI lines are required to be as short as possible.

3. The less the lead bend between the high-speed electronic device pins, the better.

The lead wire of the high-frequency circuit wiring is preferably a full line, which needs to be turned, and can be folded by a 45-degree line or a circular arc. This requirement is only used to improve the fixing strength of the copper foil in the low-frequency circuit, and in the high-frequency circuit, the content is satisfied. One requirement is to reduce the external transmission and mutual coupling of high frequency signals.

4. Pay attention to the “crosstalk” introduced by the parallel lines of the signal lines.

High-frequency circuit wiring should pay attention to the "crosstalk" introduced by the parallel lines of the signal lines. Crosstalk refers to the coupling phenomenon between signal lines that are not directly connected. Since the high-frequency signal is transmitted along the transmission line in the form of electromagnetic waves, the signal line acts as an antenna, and the energy of the electromagnetic field is emitted around the transmission line, and an undesired noise signal generated by the mutual coupling of the electromagnetic fields between the signals is generated. Called Crosstalk. The parameters of the PCB layer, the spacing of the signal lines, the electrical characteristics of the driver and receiver, and the termination of the signal line all have a certain impact on crosstalk. Therefore, in order to reduce the crosstalk of high-frequency signals, it is required to do the following as much as possible during wiring:

(1) Inserting a ground or ground plane between two lines with severe crosstalk under the condition of the wiring space, can play the role of isolation and reduce crosstalk;

(2) When there is a time-varying electromagnetic field in the space around the signal line, if parallel distribution cannot be avoided, a large area "ground" can be arranged on the reverse side of the parallel signal line to greatly reduce the interference;

(3) Under the premise of permitting the wiring space, increase the spacing between adjacent signal lines, reduce the parallel length of the signal lines, and the clock lines should be perpendicular to the key signal lines and not parallel;

(4) If the parallel traces in the same layer are almost unavoidable, in the adjacent two layers, the direction of the traces must be perpendicular to each other;

(5) In digital circuits, the usual clock signals are signals whose edges change rapidly, and the external crosstalk is large. Therefore, in the design, the clock line should be surrounded by ground lines and more ground holes to reduce the distributed capacitance, thereby reducing crosstalk;

(6) As far as possible, the low-frequency differential clock signal should be used for the high-frequency signal clock and the grounding method should be used.

(7) Do not leave the unused input terminal, but ground it or connect it to the power supply (the power supply is also ground in the high-frequency signal loop). Because the suspended line may be equivalent to the transmitting antenna, grounding can suppress the emission. Practice has proved that using this method to eliminate crosstalk can sometimes be effective immediately.

5, high-frequency digital signal ground wire and analog signal ground wire to isolate

When the analog ground wire, digital ground wire, etc. are connected to the common ground wire, the high-frequency turbulent magnetic beads are used to connect or directly isolate and select a suitable place for single-point interconnection. The ground potential of the ground of the high-frequency digital signal is generally inconsistent. There is often a certain voltage difference between the two, and the ground of the high-frequency digital signal often has a very rich harmonic component of the high-frequency signal. When the digital signal ground and the analog signal ground are directly connected, the harmonics of the high-frequency signal interfere with the analog signal by means of ground-line coupling. Therefore, in general, the ground of the high-frequency digital signal and the ground of the analog signal are to be isolated, and a single-point interconnection at a suitable position or a high-frequency turbulent magnetic bead interconnection may be employed.

6, the power supply pin of the integrated circuit block increases the high frequency untwisting capacitance

A high frequency untwisting capacitor is added to the power supply pin of each integrated circuit block. Increasing the high frequency decoupling capacitor of the power supply pin can effectively suppress the high frequency harmonics on the power supply pin to form interference.

7. Avoid loops formed by traces

Do not form a loop as much as possible for all types of high-frequency signal traces. If it is unavoidable, make the loop area as small as possible.

8, must ensure good signal impedance matching

During the transmission of the signal, when the impedance does not match, the signal will reflect in the transmission channel, and the reflection will overshoot the composite signal, causing the signal to fluctuate around the logic threshold.

The fundamental way to eliminate the reflection is to make the impedance of the transmitted signal match well. Since the difference between the load impedance and the characteristic impedance of the transmission line is larger, the reflection is also larger. Therefore, the characteristic impedance of the signal transmission line should be equal to the load impedance as much as possible. At the same time, it should be noted that the transmission line on the PCB should not be abrupt or corner, try to keep the impedance of each point of the transmission line continuous, otherwise there will be reflection between the segments of the transmission line. This requires the following wiring rules to be observed when performing high-speed PCB routing:

(1) LVDS wiring rules. Requires LVDS signal differential trace, line width 7mil, line spacing 6mil, the purpose is to control the differential signal pair impedance of HDMI is 100+-15% ohm;

(2) USB wiring rules. Requires USB signal differential routing, line width 10mil, line spacing 6mil, ground line and signal line distance 6mil;

(3) HDMI wiring rules. Requires HDMI signal differential routing, line width 10mil, line spacing 6mil, the distance between each two sets of HDMI differential signal pairs exceeds 20mil;

(4) DDR wiring rules. DDR1 routing requires that the signal not go through the hole as much as possible, the signal line is equal, the line and line are equidistant, the line must meet the 2W principle to reduce the crosstalk between signals, and the high-speed data for DDR2 and above requires high-frequency data. The lines are equal in length to ensure impedance matching of the signals.

Maintain the integrity of signal transmission and prevent "ground bounce" caused by ground segmentation.
