calaf, as to layer count there are various ways to estimate the number that will be necessary assuming you have placement flexibility. If you don't have placement flexibility it gets tougher. Six voltages can be a bit challenging, especially if you can't concentrate each. Stack-up #1 doesn't look very good to me. It looks like an EMC nightmare waiting to happen. It also looks unbalanced from a Cu standpoint and will likely warp. Stack-up #2 is better, but still not very appealing. Without more information on just how much Cu you need for each of those five voltages it is difficult to make a specific recommendation. Maybe if the fill balances out right: 1 signal 2 gnd 3 routed power, signal 4 3.3V plane 5 gnd 6 routed power, signal 7 gnd 8 signal Steve At 11:56 AM 7/5/2004 +0000, calaf_calaf_calaf wrote: >Hi everyone: >I am trying a stack like this: >1. signal >2. gnd >3. power & signal >4. gnd >5. power 3,3 >6. signal > >but I have many different powers and signals so it is hard to carried >it out.
