Topics related to implementing a design on a printed circuit board that uses GTM transceivers are presented in this chapter. GTM transceivers are analog circuits that require special consideration and attention when designing and implementing them on a printed circuit board. Besides an understanding of the functionality of the device pins, a design that performs optimally requires attention to issues such as device interfacing, transmission line impedance and routing, power supply design filtering and distribution, component selection, and PCB layout and stackup design.
