Another placement technique is called orthogonal arrangement, which requires more area than
the previous technique but produces similar results. This arrangement is shown in Figure 10-3.
These techniques reduce the electromagnetic interference (EMI), which is discussed in Section
10.3.3.1, “Electromagnetic Interference (EMI).”
