Placement Guidelines

The following sections describe guidelines for planing components on the board.

Placing Bypass Capacitors

Place bypass capacitors close to every integrated circuit's power supply pin.

Placing Multi-Line Interfaces

When placing components, avoid crossing high-speed signals. The hardened Titanium™ MIPI RX/TX D-PHY block supports polarity inversion, where you can swap the P and N pins for any MIPI physical lane. This feature eliminates cross lanes.

Note: You set the polarity inversion in the Interface Designer using the Swap P&N Pins option.
