Background
The planar circuit board is a main carrier of components in electronic products, and modern electronic products with complex control communication and multimedia functions commonly use a high-speed main frequency processor and a high-speed digital bus, and the planar circuit board used as a carrier comprises a multilayer printed circuit board, a circuit substrate for packaging a large chip, a circuit substrate for a multi-chip module and the like.
Typically, the power, ground, and signals of these planar circuit boards are disposed on designated planar layers, respectively, and a plurality of metal planes of different properties and dielectric spacing stacks are ultimately bonded to the planar circuit boards. The different numbers of through holes pass through the plane layers to realize electrical connection. The multi-layer circuit board generally refers to 6 or more metal layers, has more routing impedance options, and has better wiring density, isolation and electromagnetic protection capability. Electrical devices such as ICs, crystal oscillators, SOC chips, decoupling capacitors, etc. are disposed on the surface of the planar circuit board.
The power plane, ground plane and dielectric interlayer may be equivalently planar waveguides having an electrical mode, i.e. an electrical resonance characteristic, related to their physical dimensions, dielectric parameters. When power supply noise current from an electric device, such as power supply ripple, simultaneous switching noise (Simultaneous Switching Noise, SSN) caused by a high-speed digital signal, and the like, is injected into a power supply plane from a surface layer through a via hole thereof through a ground plane, the noise current is excited into electromagnetic waves, and the excited frequency and intensity are related to the position of the via hole in the plane. When the electromagnetic waves finally reach the edge of the circuit board, the electromagnetic waves radiate outwards through an equivalent slot antenna at the edge of the board, so that far-field electromagnetic interference (EMI) radiation is caused. The EMI radiation frequency range and the upper intensity limit of various current applications are regulated by corresponding international/national/industry standards. Currently, the upper frequency limit specified by automotive EMI emissions (CISPR 25) is 2.5GHz. Future CISPR standards organization programs will raise this upper limit to 400GHz.
An example of a typical power supply noise disturbance and radiation superscript is DDR-SDRAM. The DDR-SDRAM has high clock frequency (DDR 2 main frequency is more than 400 MHz), the number of parallel bus wires such as clock/data/address is large, and the signal swing is large. The result is a considerable amount of clock fundamental and higher harmonic energy, which is a strong source of interference. Even if both clock and signal lines are disposed within the PCB, noise can still propagate through the power ground plane waveguide, causing interference with the surrounding power supply, signals, and causing significant EMI emissions. The best solution is to control the energy spectral density of the noise source, such as using a clock spread spectrum technique (Spread spectrum clocking, SSC). But when the main control chip of the system does not support DDR spread spectrum application, other measures must be adopted for coping. A common method of suppressing power ground noise in practice is to use a patch capacitor to decouple the power ground. Because of the lead inductance and the wiring inductance of the patch capacitor, the power ground noise below 100MHz can be well suppressed, and the suppression effect on DDR fundamental frequency and higher harmonic waves is not obvious.
Such as significant board edge emissions due to power supply noise of large chip packages and circuit substrates for multi-chip modules. An equivalent planar antenna formed by a poorly grounded metal cover and a ground plane easily radiates this noise energy.

It should be noted that, the mixed layer 13 is also used for arranging ground wires and can be regarded as a ground layer, the upper and lower ground layers wrap the power layer 12 to minimize electromagnetic wave emission and propagation in the vertical direction, and simultaneously, a double-part planar decoupling capacitor is formed between the power layers, thereby playing the role of reducing noise.
The laminated unit is provided with a power via hole 14 perpendicular to the high-speed multilayer planar circuit board, the power via hole 14 penetrates through the laminated unit and is connected with the power layer 12 in the laminated unit, a power ground hole 15 parallel to the power via hole 14 is arranged beside the power via hole 14, the power ground hole 15 penetrates through the laminated unit and is respectively connected with the ground layer 11 and the mixed layer 13 in the laminated unit, and in the embodiment, the connection of the power ground hole 15 and the mixed layer 13 is actually that the power ground hole 14 is connected with the ground part in the mixed layer 13.

The electromagnetic wave intensity caused by the forward current of the power via hole 14 and the backward current of the power ground hole 15 is partially offset to reduce the electromagnetic wave emission in the horizontal direction, in addition, the power via hole 14 and the power ground hole 15 are combined to be equivalent to a wideband decoupling capacitor to inhibit the resonance mode of the combined position area, the closer the distance between the power via hole 14 and the power ground hole 15 is, the smaller the current loop area is, the smaller the equivalent loop inductance is, the stronger the inhibition capability is, and the distance between the same power via hole 14 and the plurality of power ground holes 15 arranged beside the same power via hole 14 is equal, so that the noise inhibition effect is better.
As shown in fig. 3, the embodiment of the present invention provides a circuit board, which includes a ground layer 11, a power layer 12, and a mixed layer 13, and the outer edge wraps a wave absorbing material 61 or a ground metal foil layer 61 for shielding electromagnetic interference.
As shown in fig. 4, the embodiment of the present invention provides a high-speed multi-layer planar circuit board, which has eight layers, including a first lamination unit, a second lamination unit, a signal layer 16, and a signal layer 26, and includes two lamination units;
The first laminated unit comprises a ground layer 11, a power layer 12 and a mixed layer 13, the second laminated unit comprises a ground layer 21, a power layer 22 and a mixed layer 23, the ground layer 11 and the ground layer 21 are symmetrical, the power layer 12 and the power layer 22 are symmetrical, the mixed layer 13 and the mixed layer 23 are symmetrical, the signal layer 16 and the signal layer 26 are symmetrical, and all layers in the circuit board are arranged up and down symmetrically.
It should be noted that all layers of the circuit board are symmetrically arranged, which is beneficial to reducing noise interference.
The power via hole 14 in the first laminated unit penetrates through the first laminated unit and is connected with the power layer 12 in the first laminated unit, one end of the power via hole 14 extends to the surface layer of the circuit board nearest to the power layer 12, namely the signal layer 16 in the embodiment, a power ground hole 15 is arranged beside the power via hole 14 in the first laminated unit, one end of the power ground hole 15 extends to the surface layer of the circuit board nearest to the power layer 12, namely the signal layer 16 in the embodiment, and is respectively connected with the grounding layer 11, the mixed layer 13 and the grounding layer and the mixed layer extending through the first laminated unit, but one end of the power ground hole 15 extends to the surface layer of the circuit board outside the first laminated unit and is free of the grounding layer and the mixed layer.
The power via hole 14 and the power ground hole 15 in the first laminated unit are through holes, and the other ends of the power via hole 14 and the power ground hole 15 extend to the surface layer of the circuit board farthest from the power layer 12, and in this embodiment, the surface layer of the circuit board farthest from the power layer 12 is the signal layer 26.
The power ground holes 15 are connected to the ground layer 21, the hybrid layer 23, which extend through, whereas the power vias 14 are not connected to the power layer 22, since different power layers provide different voltages or different frequencies of power, which are individual and common to ground.
The high-frequency element 17 and the surface-mounted high-frequency decoupling capacitor 18 connected to the power supply layer 12 in the first laminated unit are provided on the surface layer of the circuit board closest to the ground layer 11 in the first laminated unit, that is, the signal layer 16.
It should be noted that the circuit board has two surface layers, one on the uppermost and one on the lowermost, and in this embodiment, the surface layers of the circuit board are the signal layer 16 and the signal layer 26, and the high-frequency element 17 is disposed on the surface layer closest to the ground layer 11 of the laminated unit where the power layer 12 is connected, so as to make the via distance between the high-frequency element 17 and the surface-mounted high-frequency decoupling capacitor 18 and the power layer 12 as short as possible, because the shorter the via, the smaller the inductance, and the inductance prevents the high-frequency signal from flowing back. Therefore, high-frequency related devices such as high-frequency decoupling capacitors and the like are placed on the same surface for high-frequency noise sources, so that the high-frequency noise flows back more effectively.
The surface-mounted low-frequency decoupling capacitor 19 connected with the power supply layer 12 in the first laminated unit is arranged on the surface layer of the circuit board farthest from the ground layer 11 in the first laminated unit, namely the signal layer 26, and the low-frequency element and the surface-mounted low-frequency decoupling capacitor can be arranged on the surface layer of any circuit board and separated from the high-frequency element as far as possible for convenience of management.
It should be noted that, the circuit board may be provided with more than two laminated units, but it is necessary to place the laminated units in the middle of the circuit board, which may result in that the distance between the power board and the surface layer of the circuit board in the laminated units is too far, resulting in that the power supply is over Kong Guochang and the high-frequency noise is difficult to control.
It should be noted that the power layer 12 is filled with two patterns, which means that the same power layer may be composed of more than two power sources, including power sources with different voltages or power sources with different frequencies.
As shown in fig. 5, the embodiment of the present invention provides a high-speed multi-layer planar circuit board, which has ten layers, including a first lamination unit, a second lamination unit, a signal layer 16, a signal layer 26, a mixed layer 31, and a mixed layer 32, and includes two lamination units in total;

The two power vias 14 in the first laminated unit penetrate through the first laminated unit and are connected with the power layer 12 in the first laminated unit, one end of each power via 14 extends to the surface layer of the nearest circuit board of the power layer 12, namely the mixed layer 31 in the embodiment, a power ground hole 15 is arranged beside each power via 14 in the first laminated unit, one end of each power ground hole 15 extends to the surface layer of the nearest circuit board of the power layer 12, namely the mixed layer 31 in the embodiment, and is respectively connected with the ground layer 11, the mixed layer 13 and the mixed layer 31 extending out of the first laminated unit, if the power ground hole 15 extends through the ground layer, the connection is also needed, and one end of each power ground hole 15 extends without passing through the ground layer in the embodiment.
The power via hole 14 and the power ground hole 15 in the first laminated unit are blind holes, and the other end of the power via hole 14 is cut off from the first laminated unit and cannot extend to the second laminated unit, so that two power domains are isolated and formed, and noise is reduced.
The high-frequency element 17 and the surface-mounted high-frequency decoupling capacitor 18 connected with the power supply layer 12 in the first laminated unit are arranged on the surface layer of the circuit board nearest to the ground layer 11 in the first laminated unit, namely the mixed layer 31, the surface-mounted low-frequency decoupling capacitors 19 are arranged on the surface layer (the surface-mounted low-frequency decoupling capacitors 19 are not marked in fig. 5) of the circuit board nearest to the ground layer 11 in the laminated unit because the power supply domain is isolated, and in a word, the high-frequency element 17, the surface-mounted high-frequency decoupling capacitors 18 and the surface-mounted low-frequency decoupling capacitors 19 are arranged on the surface layer of the circuit board nearest to the ground layer 11 in the first laminated unit, and the surface-mounted decoupling capacitors comprise the surface-mounted high-frequency decoupling capacitors 17 and the surface-mounted low-frequency decoupling capacitors 18.

The outer edge of the power layer 12 wraps the annular fence ground hole 41 in the first laminated unit, the annular fence ground hole 41 is arranged between the ground layer 11 and the mixed layer 13 of the first laminated unit where the power layer 12 is located, the annular fence ground hole is also arranged between the ground layer 21 and the mixed layer 23 in the second laminated unit, and the purpose of the annular fence ground hole is to reduce the diffusion of electromagnetic radiation of the power layer in the horizontal direction.
As shown in fig. 6, the embodiment of the invention provides an interference curve under different combinations of power via holes and power ground holes, and in the same circuit board, the power injection position and the other power isolation degree of the common board are obtained through simulation, and as can be seen from the figure, the number of the power ground holes is increased when the power via holes are provided with the power ground holes, and the interference degree of the common board is gradually reduced;
Referring to fig. 6, it can be seen that the provision of the power via and the power ground via not only reduces the interference in one laminated unit, but also reduces the interference between a plurality of power panels.
