Routing Specifications

These parameters are recommendations only, intended to get the design close to success prior to simulation. To ensure the PCB design meets all requirements, it is required the design be simulated and those results compared with the simulation results defined in Section 4.

Table 3-12 PCI-E Routing Specifications
Parameter MIN TYP MAX Unit
CSI2/DSI Operating Speed 1.25 (1) GHz
CSI2/DSI Signal Trace Length 10 (2) Inches
CSI2/DSI Differential Pair Skew Have to satisfy mode-conversion S parameters (3)
CSI2/DSI Lane Skew
(example DSI_TX0 to DSI_TX1) 40 (4) ps
CSI2/DSI Differential Impedance (5) 85 100 115 Ω
CSI2/DSI Single-ended Impedance 50 Ω
Number of stubs allowed on CSI2/DSI traces 0 stubs
Number of vias on each CSI2/DSI trace 2 Vias
CSI2/DSI Differential Pair to any other Trace Spacing 2×DS (6)
For supported data rates, see the device-specific data manual.
MAX value is based upon conservative signal integrity approach. This value can be extended only if detailed signal integrity analysis confirms the desired operation.
Defined in MIPI D-PHY spec, includes sdc12, scd21, scd12, sdc21, scd11, sdc11, scd22, and sdc22. General estimate is UI / 50 (where UI = 400ps for 1.25GHz).
Defined by MIPI spec as 0.1 × UI (where UI = 400ps for 1.25GHz).
Because the MIPI signals are used for low-power, single-ended signaling in addition to their high-speed differential implementation, the pairs must be loosely coupled.
DS = differential spacing of the traces, exceptions can be necessary in the SoC package BGA area.
