Abstract
A package trace design technique provides at least partial cancelation of reflections. In one illustrative method of providing a high-bandwidth chip-to-chip link with a first die coupled to a second die via a first substrate trace, an intermediate trace, and a second substrate trace, the method includes: (a) determining a first propagation delay for an electrical signal to traverse the first substrate trace, the electrical signal having a predetermined symbol interval; (b) determining a second propagation delay for the electrical signal to traverse the second substrate trace; and (c) setting a length for at least one of the first and second substrate traces, the length yielding a difference between the first and second propagation delays, the difference having a magnitude equal to half the predetermined symbol interval.
