rf - Implementation of Decoupling capacitor



I have schematic for decoupling capacitors (3 set of 0.1uF,1nF,10pF): enter image description here And I've implemented that in this way: enter image description here And there is ADI reference for easy evaluation: enter image description here And the ground pins of decoupling caps will all connected to ground by polygone containing all pins in top and bottom. Also we have two stranger, 12GHz differential pair + clock trace. Is it acceptable? Do not tell anything and listen to the notes please.


Note:


The board have 4 layer 1.RF 2.GND(unbroken) 3.AVDD(unbroken) 4.signal


And as you can (have to!) see I have connected 3 AVDD pins of IC, together (by polygon), but the 3 AGND's are exactly in left side of the differential 12GHz pair. Unfortunately I will connect the top capacitors to two pin in left-side of C1's GND, because they are GND but are Digital GND (datasheet called them DGND and SDGND).I have idea it will be nice if I can place a bigger size (like 1204) of one of capacitors to bridge the right and left of differential pair, is it good idea (I prefer 1nF)?



Finally


The questions are:


|.Is it acceptable decoupling, rate it and if is poor give alternate idea


||.Is it good idea to bridge two side of differential pair? (because I think the bypasses must be between same GND & VDD but in this case they are not in good placement)

arduino - Can I use TI's cc2541 BLE as micro controller to perform operations/ processing instead of ATmega328P AU to save cost?

I am using arduino pro mini (which contains Atmega328p AU ) along with cc2541(HM-10) to process and transfer data over BLE to smartphone. I...
