Motherboard Layout and Routing Guidelines

Because of the specifics of an ATX layout, it is recommended that the PIIX4E component is at the “END” of the PCI bus, as shown in Figure 2-28. This insures proper “termination” of the PCI Bus signals.

Decoupling caps should be placed at the corners of the 443GX(BGA Package). A minimum of four 0.1uF and four 0.01 uF are recommended. The system bus, AGP, PCI, and DRAM interface can “break-out” from the BGA package on all four sides. Additional caps will also help reduce EMI and cross-talk.

Note: There are other discrete components for VTT, GTL Ref Voltages that must be also considered when routing around the 82443GX.
