Layout Guidelines

Section 9.4.2 illustrates an example of a PCB layout (two layer routing) for a data acquisition system using the REF80. Some key considerations are:
  • Noise performance
    • Connect low-ESR, 0.1μF ceramic bypass capacitors at VDD, HEATM and HEATP of the REF80.
    • Connect 10uF to 100uF class 1 capacitor at REF_Z of the REF80.
    • Do not run sensitive analog traces in parallel with digital traces. Avoid crossing digital and analog traces if possible, and only make perpendicular crossings when absolutely necessary.
  • Thermal performance
    • The layout must minimize the heat dissipation to maintain good thermal resistance for REF80.
    • Use minimum copper to route VDD, REF_Z, REF_GND signal.
    • Use copper as per current requirement for HEATP and HEATM pin.
    • Avoid direct copper pours underneath the package.
    • A shield around the device is recommended to achieve best heater regulation.
  • Seebeck effect
    • Avoid multiple metal-metal junction to minimize Seebeck effect.
  • Long term stability performance
    • Provide strain relief directly to pins as shown in the Layout Example.
    • Provide cuts near to the pin, perpendicular to the pins and corners.
    • Avoid single point strain accumulation.
