Return Paths
ƒ
The return paths in microstrips are very different to those
in striplines
ƒ
For striplines, the current distribution in the two
reference metallic planes can be very different
ƒ
Usually, the return path is considered as an ideal short
circuit. However, any parasitic inductance in the return
paths can significantly affect the signal integrity in both
the return paths (metallic planes) and the signal trace

Using Decoupling Capacitors
ƒ
Ideally, the metallic reference planes should be pure short
circuits at the signal frequency range
ƒ
The metallic reference planes essentially behave as
capacitors
ƒ
Decoupling capacitors are used to lower the metallic
planes impedance at the frequency of interest

Ground Bounce
ƒ
Ground bounce refers to a change in the reference
voltage caused by switching currents in the return paths
ƒ
It is also called “Simultaneous Switching Noise (SSN)”
or “Delta-I Noise”
ƒ
It is mainly produced by the parasitic inductance in the
return path
ƒ
The problem gets worse in digital systems when many
drivers are switching simultaneously
