PDB Design Review: Impedance Matching & Termination Resistors

[bogomips]

Hi, I hope you guys can help review my design-

I'm working on a keyboard PCB design. I thought I was nearly done, but after happening accoss discussions on USB impedance matching of the data traces (and differential pair routing), I thought I'd better at least try and address this.

Due to design constraints, I'm not able to place the USB plug near the MCU (Atmega32u4) - so I have to route the data traces a loooong way across the board.


(appologies, I can't get the inline attachments working... images are visible below post)

From what I read, to attempt to design to match an impedance value, you need to put a copper fill (GND) on the back of the PCB, have no interruptions to that ground plane under the traces, and set your data line traces to be a specific width, and a specific width apart - and - also try and keep the traces the same length.

I've managed to get the ground plane in, uninterrupted from USB plug to MCU. I've also set my D+/D- trace widths and separation, as per this calculation - trying to reach 90 ohms on differential impedance.

Since this is only a keyboard, I don't need high transfer speeds, so I guess that means my design does have to be 110% perfect in this regard... Due to the spacing of the USB connector pins and MCU pins, I had to compromise on trace width and taper it in..


Here are a few close-ups:




Here are the Termination Resistors:
In the keyboard design world, it common convention to put in 22 ohm resisters in the D+/D- lines:



These are 0402 package resistors (so, tiny).

Here is another chat about these termination resistors for USB:

Questions:
1) Do you think I've done a reasonable job at routing those D+/D- traces to try and match impedance? Any obvious things I could improve?
2) I'm worried about the Termination Resistors - they cause the traces to diverge a bit... I think that will mess up the impedance matching efforts? I don't have JLCPCB specs for min distance for SMT assembly... So I don't know if I can move them closer... Any thoughts on this? Should I just try and make them as close as possible together?
3) The very value of Termination Resistors is a question... 22 ohm is the usual value cited... but I don't know how that factors into the overall impedance of the D+/D- lines? (I'm still learning...)

Thank you very much

Some good info here:

22 ohms is from the ATmel data sheet.
