9.3.1 NZN Four Layer Example Key Stackup Features

  • Standard 62 mil total thickness
  • Only top layer has adjacent ground reference for controlled impedance planning
  • Single GND plane on layer 2 as most signals are routed on layer 1, allowing the best signal return paths for the most signals possible
  • Larger dielectric thickness between L3 power and L2 GND return layers has reduced plane capacitance performance compared to higher layer count stackups, potentially impacting power integrity and EMI.
  • Example fan-out with all through-hole via layer transitions – no micro-via or via-in-pad necessary.
