10.1.4 Module Layout Recommendations

Figure 10-3 and Figure 10-4 show layer 1 and layer 2 of the TI module layout.

Follow these module layout recommendations:

  • Ensure a solid ground plane and ground vias under the module for stable system and thermal dissipation.
  • Do not run signal traces under the module on a layer where the module is mounted.
  • Signal traces can be run on a third layer under the solid ground layer and beneath the module mounting.
  • Run the host interfaces with ground on the adjacent layer to improve the return path.
  • TI recommends routing the signals as short as possible to the host.
