 Hello,

Should I split ground for analog and digital and connect in a single point? i don't see reference on this issue in the datasheet or hardware guide but  "I know" this is something i need to do..

 

Regards,

Assaf

 Hi,

Seperate ground plane is not required. Please refer to FX3 DVK layout files available at http://www.cypress.com/?rID=58321.

Regards

Prajith
