2.4 Star Line vs. Split Line

The star line and split line topologies were compared in a scenario driving two loads with a capacitance of 5pF each routed through a total of 8 inches of PCB traces. As shown in Figure 2-8, the star line approach results in better signal integrity and faster rise or fall times.
