11 Layout

11.1 Layout Guidelines

11.1.1 Grounding

A single ground plane is sufficient to give good performance, provided the analog, digital, and clock sections of the board are cleanly partitioned. See the ADS4226 Evaluation Module (SLAU333) for details on layout and grounding.

11.1.2 Exposed Pad

In addition to providing a path for heat dissipation, the PowerPAD is also electrically connected internally to the digital ground. Therefore, it is necessary to solder the exposed pad to the ground plane for best thermal and electrical performance. For detailed information, see application notes QFN Layout Guidelines (SLOA122) and QFN/SON PCB Attachment (SLUA271).

11.1.3 Routing Analog Inputs

It is advisable to route differential analog input pairs (INP_x and INM_x) close to each other. To minimize the possibility of coupling from a channel analog input to the sampling clock, the analog input pairs of both channels should be routed perpendicular to the sampling clock; see the ADS4226 Evaluation Module (SLAU333) for reference routing. Figure 85 shows a snapshot of the PCB layout from the ADS42xxEVM.

11.1.4 Routing Digital Outputs

The digital outputs should be routed away from the analog inputs and any noise sensitive circuits. Avoid routing the digital outputs in parallel to any analog trace. The digital outputs should be routed over a solid ground plane all the way to the FPGA. Keep the digital traces as short as possible to reduce EMI emissions. The traces should be matched length to maintain timing, however mismatches in the trace lengths can be taken into account by including the delay differences in the FPGA timing constraints.
