Motherboard Layout and Routing 
Guidelines
2
This chapter describes layout and routing recommendations to insure a robust design. Follow these 
guidelines as closely as possible. Any deviations from the guidelines listed here should be 
simulated to insure adequate margin is still maintained in the design
2.1
BGA Quadrant Assignment
Intel assigned pins on the 82443GX to simplify routing and keep board fabrication costs down, by 
permitting a motherboard to be routed in 4-layers. 
Figure 2-1
 shows the 4 signal quadrants of the 
82443GX. The component placement on the motherboard should be done with this general flow in 
mind. This simplifies routing and minimizes the number of signals which must cross. The 
individual signals within the respective groups have also been optimized to be routed using only 2 
PCB layers.
Note:
The Intel
®
 82443GX AGPset Datasheet contains a complete list of signals and Ball assignments.
