There are several techniques which can be employed to further minimize the effects
caused
by
an impedance mismatch during the layout process:
1.
Impedance matching
2.
Daisy chaining
3.
Avoidance
of
90°
corners.
4.
Minimization
of
the number of vias.
11.4.2.1 IMPEDANCE MATCHING
Impedance matching
is
the process of matching the impedance of the source or load
with that of the trace.
It
is
accomplished with a technique called termination. The reflec-
tion, overshoot and undershoot of signals are reduced
by
terminating the remote end of
