PDN Design Methods
-
Frequency dependent capacitance and inductance control
-
Increase of decoupling Capacitance depending frequency range
(on-chip, on-package, on-PCB, lumped, embedded)
-
Decrease of Inductance (line, plane, via, wire, bonds, decoupling
capacitors )
-
Control resonances (lumped, planar cavity, on-chip, inter-level):
avoid overlap with clock and harmonic frequencies
-
Control ESR to reduce peak resonance impedance
-
Evaluate dc ESR for dc voltage drop estimation

Conclusion
-
-
-
Significant noise coupling occurs from digital PDN to noise
sensitive RF and analog circuits on a same SiP.
The clock frequencies and harmonic frequencies should be
placed away from the RF carrier frequencies.
Low PDN impedance should be maintained.
PDN resonance frequencies should be placed away not only from
the clock frequencies, and their harmonic frequencies, but also
from RF carrier frequencies.
q
Via and wire are a major noise coupling path from digital PDN to
noise sensitive circuits.
Noise coupling reduction methods including using PDN design
design,
frequency control, filtering, separation/isolation, decoupling,
shielding, and grounding techniques.
Case studies: LNA, Clock distribution network
Chip-package co-design can provide optimal and cost-effective
solutions
