Parameter Routing Guidelines
Signal Group CLK
Reference Plane
Recommended Layer
Route over unbroken power plane or ground plane
Micro-strip
Breakout Trace Width and spacing 4 mils x 3.5 mils
Trace Impedance 100 Ω +/- 10%
Trace Spacing (trace edge to edge) • Within pair =7 mils, which might be different based on different stack-
up
• > 20 mils from any other signals
Parallel Termination 50 Ω +/- 5% single ended terminal to Vtt from CLKand ClkB respectively.
CLK/CLKB Length Matching Match CLK intra pair within +/- 0.025”. All length match data is for overall
Platform (package + board) length match.
Number of Vias • Maximum of 2 per trace
Routing Notes: Route as a differential Pair
• Use the LA or other debug headers of type SMD pads if needed. LA
headers can be on the FLY nets.
