Test Post - Nial Stewart - 2010-02-12 09:18:00

I posted a query about 10 layer PCBs for a new
board I'm
doing. I caught a reply by Rickman at home via Google, but
it seems to have disappeared now.

My usenet connection's normally pretty reliable so I'm not sure
what's going on.

Will this get out?


Nial.

Google groups sees your post.  Also your thread is still showing
up there.  It doesn't show your thread as new, but rather as a
change in subject:

Board layout for FPGA
Discussion subject changed to "10 layer stack for 1152 pin BGA routing
(and decoupling)?" by Nial Stewart

Perhaps your newsreader still shows the original subject line?

Regards,
Gabor

Oh aye, I thought I'd posted a new thread.

Must be working too hard!

So, are you gonna repost? I've given up on that last thread, but I'm a 
glutton for religious wars, because when I win/martyr myself, my 
religion promises me a stripper factory and a beer volcano. It's gospel!

Anyway, perhaps when/if you do, you could make clear whether you are 
using a 1152 pin package because you want to use all the I/O or the 
reason is you need so much logic for your application that you need that 
big a package. Are you gonna use any gigabit stuff to the BGA? If so, 
what rate? What are you connecting the 1152 pin part to? Is the 1152 pin 
part an FPGA? How many supplies does the 1152 pin part need?  A power 
budget would be useful for each supply. What rise time are you shooting 
for on the I/O from this BGA? Nial, have you ever been in a Turkish 
prison? Is this board going to be sold? In a metal box? Does it need CE 
approval or somesuch? What are the PCB's dimensions, HxWxD? How much 
time/money have you got? What stackups have you used before? Do you do 
layout yourself?

Anyone who has to regularly cope with a big package, as is my burden, 
knows that these are important parameters.

Cheers then, Syms.

p.s. I nearly posted this with a typoed hereafter boast of a 'bee 
volcano'. Which would not be nearly as good! RAmen.
