PCB LAYOUT AND POWER SUPPLY DECOUPLING

In any circuit where accuracy is important, careful considera-

tion to the power supply and the ground return layout helps to

ensure the rated performance. The printed circuit board on

which the AD5520 is mounted should be designed so that the

analog and digital sections are separated and confined to

certain areas of the board. If the PMU is in a system where

multiple devices require an AGND-to-DGND connection, the

connection should be made at one point only. The star ground

point should be established as close as possible to the device.

This PMU should have ample supply bypassing of 10 μF in

parallel with 0.1 μF on the supply and should be located as close

as possible to the package, ideally right up against the device. The

0.1 μF capacitor should have low effective series resistance (ESR)

and effective series inductance (ESI), such as the common

ceramic types that provide a low impedance path to ground at

high frequencies, to handle transient currents due to internal

logic switching. Low ESR (1 μF to 10 μF) tantalum or electrolytic

capacitors should also be applied at the supplies to minimize

transient disturbance and filter out low frequency ripple.

Fast switching signals, such as clocks, should be shielded with

digital ground to avoid radiating noise to other parts of the

board and should never be run near the reference inputs.

Avoid crossover of digital and analog signals. Traces on

opposite sides of the board should run at right angles to each

other. This reduces the effects of feedthrough through the

board. A microstrip technique is by far the best but not always

possible with a double-sided board. In this technique, the

component side of the board is dedicated to the ground plane

while signal traces are placed on the solder side.

It is good practice to use compact, minimum lead length PCB

layout design. Leads to the input should be as short as possible

to minimize IR drops and stray inductance.
