 As a BLE solution in our products one of the candidate ICs is NRF52820. Our current PCB is a 2 layer one. But the reference design for NRF52820 is 4 -layer, although it has no traces in inner layers. Is it advised to use NRF52820 on</description><dc:language>en-US</dc:language><generator>Telligent Community 13</generator><lastBuildDate>Wed, 19 Aug 2020 12:19:03 GMT</lastBuildDate><atom:link rel="self" type="application/rss+xml" href="https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/f/nordic-q-a/64980/nrf52820-layout" /><item><title>RE: NRF52820 layout</title><link>https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/265306?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Wed, 19 Aug 2020 12:19:03 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:0c7b6497-9933-474e-af8e-8fd9ea19e673</guid><dc:creator>ketiljo</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;For all the 8 dBm radios, it&amp;#39;s strongly recommended to use a 4 layer board for proper grounding. You can get away with a 2 layer board, but you need to make&amp;nbsp; the bottom layer (under and around the chip) is free of any tracks and only have ground plane, and possibly also not use the 8 dBm mode.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
