To minimize the loop in the PLC power line carrier circuit, PCB layout and routing design need to be optimized. Differential pair routing is used for carrier signal lines, with a line width of 0.2mm and a spacing of 0.3mm, maintaining impedance matching (e.g., 100Ω). Loop area is reduced through tightly coupled routing, with parallel differential pair traces and a length matching error of less than 5mm. Power decoupling capacitors are placed close to the IC power pins to form localized small loops. A multilayer board is used, with the carrier signal layer adjacent to the ground plane layer to provide a mirrored return path. Critical loops are partially covered with shielding. The loop inductance is calculated through simulation, with a target value of less than 10nH. In actual testing, a near-field probe is used to scan the radiation; after optimization, the radiation intensity in the 30MHz-200MHz frequency band should be below 40dBμV/m. Controlling the loop area can reduce radiated emissions by 20dB, improving signal integrity.
