## 2. Design Considerations
### Common Design Pitfalls and Solutions
Power Management Issues :
- Pitfall : Inadequate decoupling causing voltage fluctuations
- Solution : Implement proper power sequencing and use 0.1μF decoupling capacitors close to power pins
Clock Stability :
- Pitfall : Crystal oscillator instability affecting USB timing
- Solution : Use high-quality 12MHz crystal with proper load capacitors and keep traces short
ESD Protection :
- Pitfall : USB port vulnerability to electrostatic discharge
- Solution : Incorporate TVS diodes on USB data lines and implement proper grounding
### Compatibility Issues
USB Compliance :
- Ensure proper termination resistors (22Ω ±1%) on D+ and D- lines
- Maintain impedance control (90Ω differential) for USB traces
- Implement proper USB connector shielding and grounding
System Integration :
- Voltage Level Matching : 3.3V I/O requires level shifting when interfacing with 5V components
- Clock Domain Crossing : Proper synchronization needed when communicating with external processors
- DMA Considerations : Memory access conflicts may occur with shared bus architectures
### PCB Layout Recommendations
Power Distribution :
- Use separate power planes for analog and digital sections
- Implement star-point grounding near the device
- Place decoupling capacitors within 2mm of power pins
Signal Integrity :
- USB Traces : Route D+ and D- as differential pairs with controlled impedance (90Ω)
- Crystal Layout : Keep crystal and load capacitors close to device, avoid routing other signals underneath
- High-Speed Signals : Maintain 3W rule for spacing between critical signals
