4 Layer Stackup for Susceptibility
SeargentGranny , 09-03-2023, 09:40 PM
I am working with a BQ40z80 TI BMS chipset .This chipper has very sensitive current sense lines that can be affected by minimal RF signals from only a few feet away. I want to make a 4-layer PCB with the stackup SIG-GND-SIG-GND. Is this accepatable?

I checked datasheet and they have layout section there. I would probably route the signals above a solid GND plane, I would place this GND plane as close as possible to the signals and I would keep the tracks as short as possible. I am not sure what your plan is.

My plan was to make layer 2 GND and most of layer 4 a GND plane and place the current sense lines between them. The problem I have is the way this pack is designed. The sense resistor is about 35mm away from the chipset, with no option to move closer.

On page 33 there are some layout consideration for the sense resistor as well as the mentioning of a filter. Route the signal lines as a differential pair.
