Trace Mismatch and Compensation
The following rules describe how to handle trace mismatch (see
Figure 20
• If the trace segment between the bend corners is greater than 600 mils, adjust the
mismatch to be less than 1 mil. See
• Match the overall length of a differential pair within 5 mils.
• Match the overall length between two adjacent differential pairs within 1000 mils.
• All trace segments must be matched within 2 mils.
• Adjust the trace length near the mismatch. See
• The length compensation must be performed by working on a unified direction (a
north to south or south to north, but not both).
