Via Construction
Due to the high frequency content of the Serial RapidIO signals, it is necessary to minimize the
discontinuities imposed by crossing ground and power planes when it is necessary to transition
to different signal layers. The use of a controlled impedance via is recommended The
construction of a differential via is shown in
Figure 13
.

3.3.1.5
Layer Transitioning with Vias
The basic rule in high speed signal routing is to keep vias in the signal path down to a minimum.
Vias can represent a significant impedance discontinuity and should be minimized. When
routing vias, try to ensure that signals travel through the via rather than across the via.
A via where the signal goes through the via, has a much different effect than a via where the
signal travels across the via. These two cases are shown in
Figure 17
and in
Figure 18
. The “in”
and “out” nodes of the via model are shown on the their corresponding locations in the figures.
Transitioning across a via that is not blind or buried leaves a stub which appears as a capacitive
impedance discontinuity. The portion of the via that conducts current appears inductive while
the stub that develops only an electric field will appear capacitive.
