  • Page 3: Basic Layout Guidelines

    AIROC™ CYW20835 Bluetooth® LE system on chip hardware design guidelines Basic layout guidelines Basic layout guidelines Most Bluetooth® devices use four‐layer boards to minimize thickness. Components are placed on the top layer; the bottom layer is a solid ground fill. Most signal traces are routed on the top layer. For RF traces, use a 50‐ohm transmission line to minimize mismatch losses and reflections, and therefore maximize the power transferred to the load.
  • Page 4: Component Placement

    AIROC™ CYW20835 Bluetooth® LE system on chip hardware design guidelines Component placement Component placement As a rule, follow the receive signal flow from the antenna to the antenna matching and filter circuits, then to the low-noise amplifier (LNA) chip input. Keep the radio front end (RF), power management unit (PMU), and baseband (BB) decoupling capacitors next to CYW20835 pin pads.
  • Page 5: Decoupling Capacitors

    Component placement Decoupling capacitors See the reference schematic for decoupling capacitor usage and values on different power domains. Infineon recommends that you use the vendor and part numbers shown in the reference design BOM. Decoupling capacitors must be placed as close to its associated pin as possible.
  • Page 6: Serial Flash

    AIROC™ CYW20835 Bluetooth® LE system on chip hardware design guidelines Component placement Serial flash The CYW20835 kit uses the GD25WD80C serial flash from GigaDevice. Place the flash device on the same side as pins 35–40 of the CYW20835 device so that serial flash signals are relatively short; this helps to minimize unnecessary crossing with other signals.
