2.5.2 Plane Layout

  • Plane routing for PLL0VDDA and PLL0VSSA is shown in the following figure. These are with respect to the schematic, as shown in Figure 2-17.
  • The capacitor (22 μF) and series resistor must be placed close to the device to the 0.1 μF capacitor. A sample placement is shown in the following figure.
    Figure 2-19. Routing for PLL Filter Circuit
  • PLL0VDDA and PLL0VSSA must not be routed with a small trace width as it increases the inductance resulting in ripples. These supply traces must be routed as plane (as shown in Figure 2-19), even though the current requirements are small.

  • Same layout guidelines must be followed for DDR PLL power supplies. For more information about PCIe PLL guidelines, see SerDes.
