ground plane noise
I designed a two-layer PCB board; it was designed for 10-15 kHz signals. It has a PLL loop to generate a 12 kHz signal, some amplifiers and a demodulation stage (mixer and a sallen-key filter).
I am seeing a 12 or 15 MHz signal on the ground plane. I tried to chop the ground plane into seperate chunks and connect them to the ground pin using jumper cables. I also tried to put a inductor between two ground plane chunks. But nothing is helping much. Have anyone encountered a similar problem?
Thanks,
Divyanshu
