ds92lv18 PCB layout - ground pour

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: DS92LV18

I am currently making a 4 layer board for the ds92lv18 and surrounding circuitry.  The dielectric thickness between the top layer and ground plane is 3.5mils.  Are there any issues with applying a ground pour to the entire top layer, making sure to keep it away from the differential lines?  

Thanks!

  • Hi Daniel,

    There is no problem with the additional GND pour on top/bottom layers.  Please do keep it far enough away from the input and output signals so it is not a big factor in the overall trace impedance.

    Regards,
