Hello,
I have a PCB design that has both Analog and Digital sections that run on single +/-15VDC Linear regulated power supply. I have a 5V/1A LDO for digital section that runs off the 15VDC. The only link I have between the input ground (which acts as analog ground plane) and digital ground plane is a 1.27MM width trace (shown in the attachment).
My design is a 4 layer PCB design, with layer2 acting as 5VDC and layer3 acting as digital and analog ground plane. The analog and digital ground sections are 2MM apart.
Any suggestions to help reduce ground noise in digital section and virtually isolate it from analog section?
thanks
