Ok,

I'll ask the obvious question. If all you have is
peclpower and ground, why don't you simply change
layer 3 and 9 to peclpower and layer 6 to ground
and then you would have the most flexibility in your
design. Then you could route on any of the layers.

Whaddya think?

Subject: [SI-LIST] : which layers should I use for routing my high speed
traces

I have the following stackup. I need to route 644 MHz. PECL signals. Which

layers should I use

------------------ gnd
      ---- route layer 1
------------------ gnd
      ---- route layer 2
      ---- route layer 3
------------------ peclpower
      ---- route layer 4
      ---- route layer 5
------------------ gnd
      ---- route layer 6
------------------ gnd

My inclination is to use layers 2,3 and 4,5 because it would provide return

path for
both cases - switching high and low. On the other hand if I use the single
stripline layers,
the return current when the device switched high would have to go through a
cap to enter the power
pin.

What do you people think???
