Hello SI Experts, Can anyone point me to a good reference which deals with how to minimize EMI thru silicon package design? (i.e. not box design...) Specifically, the areas of concern are that I have a large-ish silicon die with a core clock speed >500MHz with many differential I/Os running at 10Gbps in a flip-chip BGA (probably a 3-2-3 stackup). My customer is very concerned about the EMI of this device. I'm looking for ways which can minimize the EMI. I've heard that the use of a grounded metal lid is helpful; and that placing a ring of ground balls on the outer ring of the package is helpful. But these seem to be more qualitative answers than quantitative. Any pointers or suggestions would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance, -david. ------------------------------------------------------------------ To unsubscribe from si-list: si-list-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with 'unsubscribe' in the Subject field or to administer your membership from a web page, go to: //www.freelists.org/webpage/si-list For help: si-list-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with 'help' in the Subject field List technical documents are available at: http://www.si-list.net List archives are viewable at: //www.freelists.org/archives/si-list Old (prior to June 6, 2001) list archives are viewable at: http://www.qsl.net/wb6tpu
