ADV7403 Grounding

Category: Hardware
Product Number: ADV7403

Hello,

I am designing a relatively simple board based on the ADV7403. The board receives analog RGB video from another board and outputs digital video to an FPGA.

I have read the grounding recommendations in the ADV7403 datasheet and hardware manual.

Due to my board layout considerations, I would like to ask whether it is acceptable to use one continuous, solid ground plane without any split or slot at all.

I will still keep a clear physical separation between the analog and digital sections:

  • The analog RGB inputs and associated circuitry will be placed in the analog area.
  • The FPGA and the digital pixel bus will be placed in the digital area.

This is a simple board whose main components are only the ADV7403 and an FPGA. There are no other high-speed digital interfaces on the board.

Would you consider this grounding approach to be appropriate for this application?

Thank you,

Omer
