When the voltages on the protected lines exceed the limit, the internal steering diode are forward bias will conduct the harmful transient away from the sensitive circuitry. As system frequency increases, printed circuit board layout becomes more complex. A successful high speed board must integrate the device and traces while avoiding signal transmission problems associated with HDMI data speed. With VGA ports back-drive current is a concern for system instability, start ups and power loss. The back-drive current occurs when two systems are connected through a cable and one system is OFF and another system is ON. In this case the system that is ON is the monitor. The monitor can inject current into the system that is turned OFF via the cable. To inhibit the back-drive current from happening, an integrated diode is designed into the AOZ8105 to prevent current from going into the system that is turned OFF. Figure 2 shows the schematics where the back-drive current is flowing in a system that is turned OFF.

Place the AOZ8105 device as close to the connector as possible. Use ground plane wherever to ensure maximum performance of the device. possible traces. A short trace length equates to low impedance, which ensures that the surge energy will be dissipated by the AOZ8105 device. Long signal traces will act as antennas to receive energy from fields that are produced by the ESD pulse. By keeping line lengths as short as possible, the efficiency of the line to act as an antenna for ESD related fields is reduced. Minimize interconnecting line lengths by placing devices with the most interconnect as close together as possible. The protection circuits should shunt the surge voltage to either the reference or chassis ground. Shunting the surge voltage directly to the IC’s signal ground can cause ground bounce. The clamping performance of TVS diodes on a single ground PCB can be improved by minimizing the impedance with relatively short and wide ground traces. The PCB layout and IC package parasitic inductances can cause significant overshoot to the TVS’s clamping voltage. The inductance of the PCB can be reduced by using short trace lengths and multiple layers with separate ground and power planes. One effective method to minimize loop problems is to incorporate a ground plane in the PCB design. The AOZ8105 ultra-low capacitance TVS is designed to protect four high speed data transmission lines from transient over-voltages by clamping them to a fixed reference. The low inductance and construction minimizes voltage overshoot during high current surges. When the voltage on the protected line exceeds the reference voltage the internal steering diodes are forward biased, conducting the transient current away from the sensitive circuitry. The AOZ8105 is designed for the ease of PCB layout by allowing the traces to run underneath the device. The pinout of the AOZ8105 is design to simply drop onto the IO lines of a High Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI) design without having to divert the signal lines that may add more parasitic inductance. Figure 4. High Speed HDMI PCB Layout Guidelines Printed circuit board layout is the key to achieving the highest level of surge immunity on power and data lines. The location of the protection devices on the PCB is the simplest and most important design rule to follow. The AOZ8105 devices should be located as close as possible to the noise source. The placement of the AOZ8105 devices should be used on all data and power lines that enter or exit the PCB at the I/O connector. In most systems, surge pulses occur on data and power lines that enter the PCB through the I/O connector. Placing the AOZ8105 devices as close as possible to the noise source ensures that a surge voltage will be clamped before the pulse can be coupled into adjacent PCB traces. In addition, the PCB should use the shortest Rev. 1.6 January 2010 It is crucial that the layout is successful for a HDMI design PCB board. Some of the problems associated with high speed design are matching impedance of the traces and to minimize the crosstalk between parallel traces. This application note is to provide you as much information to successfully design a high speed PCB using Alpha & Omega devices. The HDMI video signals are transmitted on a very high speed pair of traces and any amount of capacitance, inductance or even bends in a trace can cause the impedance of a differential pair to drop as much as 40Ω. This is not desirable because HDMI ports must maintain a 100Ω ±15% on each of the four pairs of its differential lines per HDMI Compliance Test Specifications. The HDMI CTS specifies that the impedance on the differential pair of a receiver must be measured using a Time Domain Reflectometry method with a pulse rise time of www.aosmd.com Page 6 of 13 AOZ8105 ≤200pS. The TDR measurements of the PCB traces allows to locate and model discontinuities cause by the geometrical features of a bend and by the frequencydependant losses of the trace itself. These fast edge rates can contribute to noise and crosstalk, depending on the traces and PCB dielectric construction material. Typical value of W = 12.6 mil, h = 10mils, D = 10mils, t = 1.4mils and εr = 4.0 with the equation below for a microstrip impedance yields: Material selection is another aspect that determines good characteristic impedance in the lines. Different material will give you different results. The dielectric material will have the dielectric constant (εr). Where Q1, Q2 = charges, r = distance between charges (m), F = force(N), ε = permittivity of dielectric (F/m). Zo = 61.73Ω Q1 Q2 F = --------------2 4πεr (1) (2) The dielectric constant affects the impedance of a transmission line and can propagate faster in materials that have a lower εr . The frequency in your design will depend on the material being used. With equation 1 you can determine the type of material to use. If higher frequency is required other board material maybe considered. GETEK is another material that can be used in high speed boards. They have a typical εr between 3.6 to 4.0. The most common type of dielectric material used for PCB is FR-4. Typical dielectric constant for FR-4 is between 4.0 to 4.5. Most PCB manufacture will be able to give you the exact value of the FR-4 dielectric constant. Once you determined the dielectric constant of the board material you can start to calculate the impedance of each trace. Below are the formulas for a microstrip layout. This impedance is dependant on the width of the microstrip (W) the thickness (t) of the trace and the height (h) of the FR4 material, and (D) trace edge to edge spacing. W D W (3) By solving for Zo you can calculate the differential impedance with the equation below. D – 0.96 ----⎞ ⎛ h Zdiff = 2 × Zo ⎜ 1 – 0.48e ⎟ ⎝ ⎠ Zdiff = 100.77 (4) Adjust the trace width, height, distance between the traces and FR4 thickness to obtain the desired 100Ω differential impedance. The general rule of thumb is to route the traces as short as possible, use differential routing strategies whenever feasible and match the length and bends to each of the differential traces. Each PCB substrate has a different relative dielectric constant. The dielectric constant is the permittivity of a relative that of empty space. Where εr = dielectric constant, ε = permittivity, and εo = permittivity of empty space. ε ε r = ----εo 87 5.98 × h Zo = -------------------------- = ln ⎛ ----------------------⎞ ⎝ 0.8W + t⎠ ε r + 1.41 The graphs below show the differential impedance with varying trace width without the package part on it. Each of the graphs and board layout represent changing trace width from 100Ω to 160Ω in increment of 20Ω.

Differential Impedance By adding a TVS onto the traces it can have a large effect on the impedance of the line. This addition of a capacitance added to a 100Ω differential transmission line without any compensation may decrease the impedance as much as 20Ω or more. Below is a formula to calculate the length for the compensation of C(TVS). Rev. 1.6 January 2010 From the above method the designer should layout the boards with a 50Ω common mode trace. The result should give you approximately 100Ω differential impedance. Z1 is the impedance that you choose in order to compensate the TVS capacitance. Based on Z1 value, we can get the length of the segment from the above equations. With the value of Z1 = 98Ω, Zo = 61Ω, C(TVS) = 0.7 and τ = 180. The X(mils) equates to 250 mils. Page 9 has a series of graph that represent changing width and length of the trace from 100Ω to 160Ω in increment of 20Ω with a package solder onto the board. As you can observe from the graphs, a small incremental capacitance that is added to the differential lines can significantly decrease the differential impedance. Thus violated the HDMI specification of 100Ω±15%. www.aosmd.com Page 8 of 13 AOZ8105 Figure 12. 100Ω Differential Impedance with Package on it Max. 97Ω, Min. 80Ω Figure 14. 140Ω Differential Impedance with Package on it Max. 102Ω, Min. 92Ω Figure 13. 120Ω Differential Impedance with Package on it Max. 99Ω, Min. 86Ω Figure 15. 160Ω Differential Impedance with Package on it Max. 101Ω, Min. 95Ω From Figure 15 we are able to get the best result from using all of the equation above.

The X(mils) equates to 250 mils to give the best compensated differential impedance on the traces for the added capacitance from the AOZ8105.

Since the TVS add capacitance we must design the board to meet the HDMI requirements. This application note is a guideline to calculate and layout the PCB. Different board manufacture and process will fluctuate and will cause the final board to vary slightly. You must carefully plan out a successful high speed HDMI PCB. Factor such as PCB stack up, ground bounce, crosstalk and signal reflection can interfere with a signal. The layout, trace routing, board materials and impedance calculation discussed in this application note can help you design a more effective PCB. 100Ω Differential 160Ω Differential 250 mils Total Distance Figure 16.
