I am planning to have 8 layer stack up on my board . The following is the structure --------- top --------- GND Signal PWR-1 PWR -2 Signal ----------- GND ---------- Bottom PWR - 1 and PWR-2 is spilit plane with multiple voltages . 1.2V , 3.3V, 5 V, 2.5 V All the DDR related voltages also included in that PWR-2 plane : 1.25V, 2.5V My question is, this Layer stack up is acceptable ? Because my concern is the high speed switching and transient current doesn't have any GND path underneath.. is that will create any noise or ripples on the power rails ???
