It is better to continue the discussions once the data is out, towards
the end of January.
It is going to be PCIe Gen3.

Yes, It depends on the work frequency.
But I fully agree with Lee's opinion. It's nothing, just a waste of
engineering time and pcb estate, if you try to do simulation and add
those stiching via in normal
PCIe Gen3 designs.

Lee,

As always, it depends. One of the presentations our team is going to do
at DesignCon 2016 will describe (with data) a scenario when stitching
vias are needed.

Regarding the original post though, if a stitching via is attached only
to one plane layer close to the surface (ground or power) it is prone to
quarter-wave resonance, which carries its own risks.

Much speculation in this message! Where is the proof?

There are millions of PCBs shipped every month with who knows how
many very
high speed transmission lines without stitching vias. In fact, the
products
would be unroutable if stitching vias were required.

Had there been no stitching via, simulations would not have been
localized -
just as the physical reality would not be localised. That is both the
simulation results would be sensitive to the BC (proximity,
type...), and
the diff vias (e.g.) would couple thru planes and plane edges.
Worse, simulations would not be predictive of the physical reality.
For CBCPW, you stitch to extinguish higher propagation modes, thus
preventing energy leaking into them from the diff and common modes.

Those stitching vias keep the CAD department busy and raise the cost
of the PCB. Not much else.

Subject: [SI-LIST] What's the purpose of stitching vias which just
connect one GND layer?

Hi Guru:
I found one interesting thing on Intel 6-layer(S-VCC-S-S-GND-S) CRB
about the stitching via.
There are pairs of stitching GND via put around the differential
signals(PCIe gen3) transited from TOP to BOTTOM layer.
The differential signal is VCC reference on the TOP layer and GND
reference on the BOTTOM layer.
My understanding for the stitching via is to provide the return path
(GND reference transited to another GND reference) But in the Intel
CRB I had on hand, these stitching vias are only connected to one GND
layer. What's the purpose?
Using capacitor to connect VCC/GND will be better, right?


Best Regards,
Kevin Hou
