Does anybody out of there have any suggestion about the following basic, but

really important and frequent, problem: how a star-point (a point from which

many traces going to other ICs start) must be series-terminated?

Do one have to put a resistance equal to the characteristic impedance of the

trace before the point from which the traces start? Or is it better to insert a

resistance on each line coming up from the star-point? In the latter case, what

is the best value for the resistances?

Thanks for any help

m.p.
