[SI-LIST] : Signal Integrity of 500 MHz on PCB

Hello,

I would just like to check with anyone who has done any discrete components
design
that uses 500 MHz clock. This translates to a 2ns period and a risetime
of less than
0.5 ns. Does anyone know if this high speed design will work on a normal
8 layer
FR4 board or any suggestions and comments are greatly appreciated. We did
ran some
simulation using PNC signal integrity and apparent it did not show very
optimistic results.

Thanks in advance.
