Differential pair to clock/high speed periodic signals: minimum 50 mils
Differential pair to other signals spacing: minimum 20 mils
Length matching between differential pairs (intra pair): 5 mils
Ground reference if possible
Spacing from differential pair to plane edge: minimum 40 mils, but if the space allowed is bigger, so
much the better
For the differential pair trace width and spacing, refer the stack up structure and impedance table
from PCB vendor.
Maximum number of vias is six on each differential signal
TX+ and TX- signals should maintain symmetry when changing layers.
No tight bend, use two 45° bends instead of 90° routing.
Trace length compensation should be added to the short side after each bend.
