4.8.1.2 Digital and Analog Signals Isolation

Analog audio signals and other digital signals should be routed as far as possible from

each other. All audio circuits require careful PCB layout and grounding to avoid picking

up digital noise on audio-signal lines.

4.8.1.3 EMI Consideration

Any signals entering or leaving the analog area must cross the ground split in the area

where the analog ground is attached to the main motherboard ground. That is, no

signal should cross the split/gap between the ground planes, which would cause a

ground loop, thereby greatly increasing EMI emissions and degrading the analog and

digital signal quality.

4.9 IDE

Type 2 and 4 COM Express modules provide a single channel IDE interface

supporting two standard IDE hard drives or ATAPI devices with a maximum transfer

rate of ATA100 (Ultra-DMA-100 with 100MB/s transfer rate). The corresponding

signals can be found on the module connector rows C and D.

4.9.1 Signal Description

Table 4-18 shows COM Express PCI IDE signals, including pin number, signals, I/0,

power plane, terminal resistors, damping resistors and descriptions.
