PCB Layout Considerations
  • The signal traces should be short and wide to
    lower the impedance.
  • The width of the signal traces has to satisfy
    current driving capacity.
  • Any used board area should be shorted to ground
    to reduce AC noise.
  • Sockets and pads will induce extra capacitance,
    so components should be directly soldered to
    board.
  • Surface mount components are preferred over
    discrete ones for less lead inductance.

VCO Design
  • VCO free running frequency Carrier Frequency
  • VCO Frequency Range is no smaller than Bandwidth
  • Large VCO gain will increase PLL natural
    frequency ?n and thus improves PLL tracking
    capability

Digital Switching Noise

56
Noise Mechanism
  • Digital switching injects current into substrate
    through various kinds of capacitance, which
    propagates through the substrate and affects
    analog circuits.
  • Digital switching draws current from power
    supply rail with impedance and thus creates
    voltage drop on power supply rail.
