[SI-LIST] Potentially Dumb Question About Routing Layers

SI Gurus:
 

How common is the practice of sharing a routing layer with a power or
ground region (i.e. an FPGA core voltage plane)?  If I can find a
reasonable return path for the signals, at face value, it appears to be
ok.  But something screams inside of me that this isn't a good idea, but
I can't really explain why.

 

Thanks in advance,

Tim
