Key Layout Considerations

  • Wide 15 mil traces should be used for all power and ground return via fan-out.
  • 3.3 V I/O power tends to be shared across multiple devices in the system, recommend routing with very wide power planes across the PCB to minimize IR drops to all components including the AM263x or AM263Px
  • A tightly coupled, adjacent ground return reference plane should be used for best transient performance and EMI coupling
  • A wide power plane entry that covers the BGA 3.3 V power pin areas should be used for minimal IR drop and best transient performance
  • Larger packaged, lower-frequency, bulk capacitance should be placed adjacent to MCU BGA with vias directly to power plane paths
  • Smaller packaged, higher-frequency decoupling capacitance should be placed directly on BGA fan-out vias with as small of a dog-bone to power and ground return vias as possible
