PRODUCTION DATA
Refer to the PDF data sheet for device specific package drawings
Placements shown in Figure 8-6 and in the cross section of Figure 8-7 show the suggested placement of the device with respect to sensitive passive components, such as VIN, bootstrap capacitors (HS and HB) and VCC capacitors. Use appropriate spacing in the layout to reduce creepage and maintain clearance requirements in accordance with the application pollution level. Inner layers if present can be more closely spaced due to negligible pollution.
The layout must be designed to minimize the capacitance at the SW node. Use as small an area of copper as possible to connect the device SW pin to the inductor, or transformer, or other output load. Furthermore, ensure that the ground plane or any other copper plane has a cutout so that there is no overlap with the SW node, as this would effectively form a capacitor on the printed circuit board. Additional capacitance on this node reduces the advantages of the advanced packaging approach of the LMG3100 and may result in reduced performance.
