11.4.1 1.8 V Digital and Analog Power Key Layout Considerations

  • Wide 15 mil traces should be used for all power and ground return via fan-out.
  • AM273x should be co-located with the 1.8 V regulator or PMIC to allow for minimal IR drop from the regulator to the BGA power pins.
  • A tightly coupled, adjacent ground return, reference plane should be used for best transient performance and EMI coupling
  • Smaller power planes or wider traces should be used for minimal IR drop and best transient routing across the associated BGA pins
  • Smaller packaged, higher-frequency, decoupling capacitance should be placed directly on BGA fan-out vias with as small of a dog-bone to power and ground return vias as possible
