10.1 Layout Guidelines

In a buck regulator, there are two loops where currents are switched very fast. The first loop starts from the input capacitors, through the buck MOSFET, to the inductor then out to the load. The second loop starts from the output capacitor ground, to the regulator PGND pins, to the current sense resistor, through the Schottky diode, to the inductor and then out to the load. Minimizing the area of these two loops reduces the stray inductance and minimizes noise, which can cause erratic operation. A ground plane is recommended as a means to connect the input filter capacitors of the output filter capacitors and the PGND pin of the regulator. Connect all of the low power ground connections (CSS, RT, and CRAMP) directly to the regulator GND pin. Connect the GND pin and PGND pins together through to top-side copper area covering the entire underside of the device. Place several vias in this underside copper area to the ground plane. The input capacitor ground connection must be as close as possible to the current sense ground connection.
