Hey guys,
I'm wondering if its okay to route simple led traces over a plane split in a PCB design. We are talking about CPLD LVCMOS edge rates. Something as simple as a blinking LED indicator strikes me as a non-critical, route anywhere type of thing. However, if one was to blink such a light, would significant EMI be produced given the edge rate?
I really would like to avoid such considerations for led signals because trying to avoid plane splits for everything drives up the number of PCB layers needed.
I appreciate your feedback.
Thanks,
