Description

Printed circuit board link connection device, method, printed circuit board and equipment
Technical Field
The application belongs to the technical field of printed circuit board design, and particularly relates to a printed circuit board link connection device, a printed circuit board link connection method, a printed circuit board and equipment.
Background
In the design of personal computers on domestic platforms, the configuration of the system is becoming diversified, for example, for an m.2 link, some customers need to support PCIE configuration, and some customers need to support SATA configuration. In this case, the motherboard designer adds a Switch chip, i.e., a switching chip, which has two input ports and selects one of the two input ports for output. The two input ports are PCIe signals and Sata signals respectively, and the mainboard design needs to select corresponding channels according to customer requirements.
In order to achieve the above function, the mainstream design topology in the prior art is shown in fig. 1 below, wherein the switch chip includes three ports, one of which is connected to the m.2 interface, and the other two ports are respectively connected to the central processor and the SATA controller. The central processing unit sends out PCIe signals, can support the PCIE configuration of M.2, the SATA controller sends out SATA signals, can support the SATA configuration of M.2, and the Switch chip can select a proper port according to the user requirements so as to realize corresponding functions.
Although this design method can realize this function in principle, difficulties are encountered in designing an actual printed circuit board, as shown in fig. 2, the SATA link includes two via diagrams, and since the SATA link is a differential signal, the SATA link includes two signal lines DP and DN, where DP is the positive electrode of the differential signal; DN is the negative of the differential signal. In the whole link, it is required to ensure that DP is always connected to DP between different chips, DN is always connected to DN, and polarity inversion cannot be performed (i.e., DP is connected to DN). In general, in the case of motherboard design, the m.2 interface is far from the switch chip, the sata controller is near to the switch chip, and both the sata controller and the switch chip are on the front side of the printed circuit board, in which case, the switch chip and the sata controller chip near to the switch chip need to exchange signals in order to ensure that DP is connected with DP, DN is connected with DN. For example, after the signals of the sata controller come out of the surface layer of the printed circuit board, the signals cannot be directly connected with the switching chip (crossing of DP and DN occurs), the signals need to be replaced by another layer, and then replaced by the surface layer at the position close to the switching chip, so that the interconnection with the switching chip is realized. Although the design method meets the design requirement of the sata, as the signal needs to be changed for two layers, two through holes are added in the link, more space of the printed circuit board is occupied, additional impedance discontinuity points are introduced, the signal quality is influenced, and the design risk is increased.
