1 Slide -1 Signal Integrity: Problems and Solutions Dr. Eric Bogatin President Bogatin Enterprises (copies of the presentation are available for download on the web site) Presented at Lockheed, Sunnyvale, CA, March 1, 2000 Slide -2 Overview What is Signal Integrity? Why is it growing in importance? What can you do about it?
2 Signal Integrity and Interconnect Design Slide -3 How the electrical properties of the interconnects screw up the beautiful, pristine signals from the chips Slide -4 The Confusing Mix of Signal Integrity Problems TERMINATIONS LINE DELAY EMISSIONS ATTENUATION PARASITICS EMI/EMC CAPACITANCE LOADED LINES NON-MONOTONIC EDGES SUSCEPTABILITY POWER AND GROUND BOUNCE GROUND DISTRIBUTION SKIN DEPTH LOSSY LINES IR DROP INDUCTANCE CRITICAL NET RINGING CROSSTALK SIGNAL INTEGRITY RETURN CURRENT PATH TRANSMISSION LINES IMPEDANCE DISCONTINUITIES DELTA I NOISE UNDERSHOOT, OVERSHOOT RC DELAY STUB LENGTHS GAPS IN PLANES REFLECTIONS DISPERSION
3 Slide -5 The Four High Speed Problems 1. Signal quality of one net: reflections and distortions from impedance discontinuities in the signal or return path 2. Cross talk between multiple nets: with ideal return paths, and without (SSO) 3. Rail collapse in the power and ground distribution network 4. EMI from a component or the system Slide -6 Signal Quality on One Net: Distorted by the Interconnect Initial output signal Signal distorted by interconnect Simulated with Hyperlynx
4 Slide -7 Cross Talk Between Two Adjacent Conductors- Ideal Return Path Near end Active line far end 50W The far end noise is ~ 10x larger than the near end noise Near end Far end rise time ~ 100 psec, TD ~ 1 nsec (HP High speed scope and TDR) Slide -8 Conceptual Origin of SSO Noise On Chip I charge I discharge Switching lines Quiet data line V CC V SS L Bonding L Bonding GND Power common lead inductance 1991 Integrated Circuit Engineering Corporation 15836
5 Slide -9 Simple Example of Rail Collapse 100 nf To regulator C decoupling Current On Current Off Rail collapse: DV ~ - di/dt V dd nominal V dd rail collapse Source: National Semiconductor Slide -10 Radiated Emissions and Power and Ground Routing
6 Slide -11 Two Classes of High Speed Problems Timing: setup, hold, propagation delay, skew Scales with decreasing clock period Electrical Noise: signal integrity and EMI Scales with decreasing rise time di dt dv dt f, f 2 Slide -12 it s the rise time, On Chip I charge I discharge Switching data lines Quiet data line V CC V SS L Bonding GND Power L Bonding Integrated Circuit Engineering Corporation SSO noise ~ N x L t common lead inductance N = number of switching leads per ground leads L = lead inductance or lead length t = rise time
7 Slide -13 Shorter Delays Mean Shorter Clock Periods, Higher Clock Frequencies Digital Clock Frequencies are Increasing: doubling every 2 years! Clock Frequency (MHz) 1000 Clock frequency of Intel Processors Introduction Year High speed usually refers to increasing clock frequency Slide -14 Increase in Clock Frequencies 3500 Clock Frequency (MHz) on-chip on-board Year Source: SIA Roadmap
8 Slide -15 Rise Times Are Loosely Related to Clock Frequency 10 nsec period 1 nsec rise time Approximate Rise Time (nsec) ,000 10,000 τ ~ F clock Clock Frequency (MHz) What is the consequence of higher speed? Slide -16 The Driving Force Fueling the Electronics Revolution: Gate Length Feature Size Reduction 50% reduction every 4 years
9 Slide -17 Transistors Switch Faster As Channel Length Shrinks Shorter channel length means: ->> shorter delay ->> shorter rise time in out What can happen to the clock period and clock frequency? Slide -18 Situation Analysis Clock frequency will get faster Rise times for every chip will get shorter SI problems will be more significant Design cycle times will be decreasing Conclusion: Getting new products to market on time will be harder. Solution: A new design methodology is needed.
10 Slide -19 The Old Design Strategy Guess a design Hope it works Build it Test it Try to Fix it Ship it Slide -20 Details of the Three Design Approaches The earlier in the design cycle problems can be identified and solved, the lower the development cost and the faster time to market. Design by virtual iteration Correct by design Design by correcting Source: G. Doyle, Mentor Graphics

12 Slide -23 Two Tools for Simulating Circuits SPICE: Simulation Program with Integrated Circuit Emphasis PSPICE from OrCAD/Cadence IsSPICE from Intusoft Advanced Design System (ADS) from HP Eesof Maxwell SPICE from Ansoft Micro-CAP from Spectrum HSPICE from Avant! IBIS based simulators: Input/output Buffer Interface Specification Hyperlynx (Pads) Veribest/Mentor Graphics Zukan Redac Viewlogic Interconnectix (Mentor Graphics) Slide -24 Design Principles for Good SI Noise Categories Signal Quality Cross talk Rail Collapse EMI Design Principles Signals should see the same impedance through all interconnects Keep spacing of traces greater than a minimum value, minimize mutual inductance of non ideal returns Minimize the impedance of the power and ground path Minimize bandwidth, minimize ground impedance and shield When are you done? How much reduction is enough?
13 Slide -25 just follow these RULES Cost factors: Performance (meet specs) time money risk Slide -26 Design Tradeoffs Are Negotiated With a Budget Total voltage swing is 3.3v Within 500 mv, all the noise sources must be accounted for: An example: Noise Source Ringing/reflections Discontinuities Cross talk SSO noise Rail collapse Total* Margin * *dynamic effects important Allocated Budget 100mV 40mV 90mV 120mV 100mV 450mV ~50mV Rail collapse 22% SSO noise 27% Ringing 22% Cross talk 20% Discontinuities 9% In hi speed systems, keeping within the noise budget is HARD! The more accurately you can predict performance, the less margin needed and the higher the performance
14 Slide -27 The Most Important General Design Principles 1. Slow down edges 2. Minimize the length of all interconnects 3. Use low dielectric constant materials for signal layers 4. Use controlled impedance lines and terminate 5. Minimize loop mutual inductances between signal lines 6. Use continuous, closely spaced, adjacent power and ground planes #1 solution: slow down the edges Slide Ohm line Top view 2 short stubs (capacitive discontinuity) 150 mils spacing Longer the rise time, smaller the impact, or, 50 psec the shorter the discontinuity, the smaller the impact
15 Slide -29 Minimize Bandwidth Spread Spectrum Clock Generator (SSCG) Avoid resonance and clock harmonics At 2 GHz At 2.3 GHz Figure 28. Data from Ansoft HFSS showing the field distribution on and off resonance for a 208 lead QFP, excited at one lead. AVX Z chip: integrated RC, with low stray C #2 solution: shorter is better Slide -30 Reflections: Cross talk Rail collapse EMI Near end Mutual C, mutual L, scale with length Series L scales with length Radiated emission scales with length of current path
16 Slide -31 Terminations will Minimize Reflected Noise from the Ends Series R terminate RC terminate at far end, changing C Source: Analog Devices Slide -32 Avoid Stubs and Branches branches daisy chain (for 0.5 nsec edges, stub length < 0.5 inches)
17 Slide -33 Thin Power and Ground Layers Reduce Switching Noise Small daughtercard Conventional, 10 mil thick spacing, 2 plane pairs A Low-Cost Technique for Reducing the Simultaneous Switching Noise in Sub-Board Packaging Configurations, Koike and Kaizu, IEEE Trans CPMT part B vol 21(4) Nov 1998 p. 428 Thin layer, 2 mil thick, 4 plane pairs Slide -34 Reduced Switching Noise Reduces SSO noise Improves effectiveness of the decoupling caps
18 Slide -35 Reducing Emissions: Low Impedance Power and Ground Layers by Thinner Dielectric Slide -36 Avoid Splits in Return Path with split no split Archambeault, Bruce; Proper design of intentional splits in the ground reference plane of PC Boards to minimize emissions from I/O wires and cables, Proc IEEE conf on EMC, p. 768 Avoid all splits in the return path!
19 Slide -37 Unintentional Splits Figure 9. How a via field for a connector can create a gap. By decreasing the clearance hole diameter in the ground plane, a continuous return path can be provided. Decreasing size of clearance holes reduced radiated emissions Figure 10. Data from [10]. Left is the emission from a board with gaps under via fields- failing the Class A test. Right: the exact same board, but with smaller clearance holes and no gaps under traces- passing Class A test. Slide -38 The Design Strategy 1. Use design guidelines as design guidelines to shoot for 2. Estimate the magnitude of each effect and the benefit from a design or technology solution 3. Verify the models and simulations based on measurements of test vehicles and previous designs 4. Evaluate cost/performance trade offs 5. Keep optimizing until the noise budget is met 6. The earlier in the design cycle correct design decisions can be made, the shorter time to market and lower the development cost
