6.3.2.3 DVOB and DVOC Routing Guidelines
Table 51 provides the DVOB and DVOC routing guideline summary.
The routing guideline recommendations in this section apply for both interfaces. Refer to Table 52
for GMCH DVOB package lengths and Table 53 for GMCH DVOC package lengths.
• All signals shall be routed as striplines (inner layers).
• All signals in a signal group shall be routed on the same layer. Routing studies have shown that
these guidelines may be met. The trace length and trace spacing requirements
must not be
violated by any signal.
• Route the DVOBCLK[1:0] or DVOCCLK[1:0] signal pairs 4 mils wide and 8 mils apart with
a max trace length of 6 inches. This signal pair shall be a minimum of 12 mils from any
adjacent signals.
• To break out of the 82855GME, the DVOB and/or DVOC data signals may be routed with a
trace width of 4 mils
and a trace spacing of 7 mils. The signals shall be separated to a trace
width of 4 mils and a trace spacing of
8 mils within 0.3 inches of the GMCH component.
