1. PCB Layout 1. Follow the layout principle of “big first, small later, difficult first, easy later”, meaning that important unit circuits and core components should be prioritized in the layout. 2. The layout must refer to the schematic diagram and place components according to the signal flow rules of the schematic. 3. The arrangement … Read more
01 Power Layout and Wiring Digital circuits often require non-continuous current, which can cause surge currents in some high-speed devices. If the power routing is long, the surge current can lead to high-frequency noise, which can then couple into other signals. In high-speed circuits, parasitic inductance, parasitic resistance, and parasitic capacitance are inevitable, so this … Read more
PCB Network News Optical modules have gained prominence in high-speed communication due to their ability to convert optical signals. The design of their PCB mainboard must meet special requirements such as high-speed transmission, heat dissipation, mounting, and hot-swapping, making it different from ordinary PCBs. The PCB of optical modules is a key component for achieving … Read more
(1) Pre-define digital, analog, and DAA signal wiring areas on the PCB. (2) Separate digital and analog components and their respective traces as much as possible, placing them in their designated wiring areas. (3) Keep high-speed digital signal traces as short as possible. (4) Keep sensitive analog signal traces as short as possible. (5) Allocate … Read more

It is well known that PCB design always has a series of principles to follow. If these principles are not adhered to, it may lower the success probability of PCB design, affect product performance, and even have negative impacts on signal integrity, electromagnetic radiation control, and system reliability. Today, this article will analyze these principles, … Read more
Layout In design, layout is an important aspect. The quality of the layout directly affects the wiring results, so it can be said that a reasonable layout is the first step to successful PCB design. Especially pre-layout, which is the process of considering the entire circuit board, signal flow, heat dissipation, structure, and other architectures. … Read more
In the FPGA (Field Programmable Gate Array) design process, adjusting pins is a crucial task that directly relates to the stability and performance of the design. This article will discuss several aspects to pay attention to when adjusting FPGA pins! 1. Do Not Adjust VRN/VRP Pins Arbitrarily When the VRN (Reference Negative Voltage) and VRP … Read more
