Hi All, I have a task to design a 2-layer board with a very packed circuitry and so, no luxury of having the ground or power planes. The power supplies provided to the board are +5V, -24V and -48V, through a DIN-96 connector. I have two questions: 1. Digital components would be fed directly from +5V supply whereas I have to generate +5V Analog (for Analog ICs) from +5V supply. How should I do that so that transients at +5V due to digital IC's are not coupled to +5V Analog ?. 2. Secondly, I require the impedance of power tracks not more than 0.1 Ohms at frequencies upto 50MHz. What should be the optimum dimensions of these tracks (+5V and its ground) ?. Also I 'ld appreciate if someone can guide me to an Application/Design note describing power/ground layout on a double-layer PCB for a multiple-supply instrument. I' ld be thankful to your response, Regards, Adeel Malik, Senior Design Engineer, Communications Enabling Technologies, 5-A Constitution Avenue, Islamabad, Pakistan.
