Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the field of communication technology, and in particular to a multi-segment impedance routing structure and a preparation method, device, equipment, medium and product thereof. Background Art
[0002] Nowadays, the density of chip packaging is getting higher and higher, and the pad spacing is getting smaller and smaller, which makes it more difficult for the traces on the circuit board to pass through the pad range. Narrowing the width of the trace to pass through the pad is the current treatment method, such as Figure 1 As shown, the change in line width will cause the trace impedance value to change. Since the trace impedance value is related to the signal reflection coefficient, and whether the transmitted signal is complete is determined by the signal reflection coefficient, the change in impedance value will cause the reflection coefficient to change. This practice will lead to discontinuity in the trace impedance, resulting in signal reflection, which in turn affects the signal integrity. Summary of the Invention

[0035] Within the averaging window, if the average impedance is equal to the characteristic impedance of the transmission line, the continuity of the transmission line can be maintained and the signal integrity can be maintained.
[0036] In an exemplary embodiment, the average impedance Z of each line segment is avg (t) is: Where a is the starting point of each line segment, b is the end point of each line segment, t is the routing path length of each line segment, and Z(t) is the impedance of the routing path length.

[0046] In practical applications, the first step is to determine the standard impedance Zo of the connecting line according to production requirements.
[0047] Step 2: Design the routing paths for multiple lines based on the pad positions on the circuit board.
[0048] Step 3: Design the final routing path based on the routing paths of multiple lines and the spatial position of the circuit board. The final routing path consists of one or more lines, and the routing path length of each line does not exceed the critical length, ensuring the average impedance Z of the routing path length of each line avg Equal to the standard impedance Zo.
[0049] Therefore, the impedance design method for each line segment is as follows: according to the spatial position of the circuit board, the width of the connection line is reduced in the narrow part, such as the boundary or between the pad array; in the loose part, the width of the connection line is increased to ensure the average impedance Z of each line segment. avg Equal to the standard impedance Zo.
