LVDS of the AD796x not always routed as differential pairs #11

Open lucask07 opened 3 years ago

lucask07 commented 3 years ago

The LVDS signals are configured as differential pairs but not consistently routed as such.

  1. Check skew -- could it be problematic?
  2. Setup automatic routing

In v2 LVDS signals were routed as diff pairs as much as possible. The skew is close to negligible. The approach used KiCAD routing to get most of the way there since the automatic router (freerouting) does not have differential pair capabilities.
