https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/f/nordic-q-a/46289/nrf52840-microviasIs there an example layout using the nRF52840 that does not use microvias and via-in-pad technology? My application is high volume, and I am trying to keep PCB costs low.en-USTelligent Community 13Wed, 17 Apr 2019 09:09:32 GMThttps://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/182542?ContentTypeID=1Wed, 17 Apr 2019 09:09:32 GMT137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:22b2ce24-908e-46d7-83b8-794da6e5df9cSimonr<p>Hi</p> <p>Due to the Easter holiday we are understaffed and you will have to expect delayed replies. Sorry for the inconvenience!</p> <p>Microvias with via-in-pads are required to avoid breaking up the grounding too much, as the radio is dependent on a good ground plane. So you should not try to cut corners here as it will severly affect the radio&#39;s performance.</p> <p>Best regards and happy Easter,</p> <p>Simon</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>
