## 2. Design Considerations
### Common Design Pitfalls and Solutions
Power Supply Issues
- Pitfall : Inadequate decoupling causing signal integrity problems
- Solution : Implement 100nF ceramic capacitor within 5mm of power pins, plus 10μF bulk capacitance
Clock Signal Integrity
- Pitfall : Excessive trace lengths causing signal degradation
- Solution : Keep clock traces <50mm with proper termination (series resistor typically 22-33Ω)
Thermal Management
- Pitfall : Overheating in high-ambient temperature environments
- Solution : Ensure adequate PCB copper pour and consider thermal vias for QFN packages
### Compatibility Issues with Other Components
Digital Logic Families
- 3.3V CMOS compatible with 5V tolerance on inputs
- May require level shifting when interfacing with 1.8V systems
- Compatible with TTL inputs but may need pull-up resistors
Microcontroller Interfaces
- Direct compatibility with most ARM Cortex-M series processors
- May require external crystal elimination when using internal clock sources
- Check specific microcontroller clock input requirements
Mixed-Signal Systems
- Potential coupling with sensitive analog circuits
- Maintain minimum 5mm separation from analog signal paths
- Use separate ground planes with single-point connection
### PCB Layout Recommendations
Power Distribution
- Use star-point grounding for analog and digital sections
- Implement separate power planes for analog and digital supplies
- Place decoupling capacitors as close as possible to power pins
Signal Routing
- Route clock signals first with controlled impedance (50Ω typical)
- Avoid 90-degree bends; use 45-degree angles or curves
- Maintain consistent trace width for clock signals
Component Placement
- Position near target IC to minimize
