6.1 Root Cause Analysis

Table 6-1 summarizes EMI failures and the root causes from the MSPM0 perspective. A more detailed explanation is in the following sections.

Table 6-1 EMI Failure Category and Causes
Noise Source Causes Suggestions

Power line

  • Inadequate decoupling capacitors near MSPM0 power pins and improper PCB layout

  • Improper grounding (for example, mixed analog or digital grounds; multipoint grounding; missing ground planes)

  • Large current loop areas in power / signal paths

 Optimize PCB layout and add capacitors to cover the concerned frequency range

External Vcore
  • Inadequate decoupling capacitors near Vcore pins and improper PCB layout
 Optimize PCB layout and add capacitors to cover the concerned frequency range

IO
  • Uncontrolled slew rate or drive strength in GPIOs
  • High transient currents during signal transitions

Use RC filter to reduce transient currents and high frequency voltage component.
