- Solution : Implement 0.1μF ceramic capacitors at each VCC pin, with bulk 10μF tantalum capacitor near device
Signal Integrity Challenges
- Pitfall : Excessive signal ringing on high-speed outputs
- Solution : Use series termination resistors (22-47Ω) on critical outputs
- Pitfall : Cross-talk between adjacent signals
- Solution : Maintain proper signal spacing and use ground planes
Timing Violations
- Pitfall : Setup/hold time violations in synchronous designs
- Solution : Perform thorough timing analysis and include adequate margin
- Pitfall : Clock skew affecting synchronous operation
- Solution : Use balanced clock tree and minimize clock path variations
### Compatibility Issues with Other Components
