Layout Guidelines

A proper layout is critical for the operation of any switched mode power supply, especially at high switching frequencies. The PCB layout of the TPS62865 and TPS62867 devices requires careful attention to ensure best performance. A poor layout can lead to issues like bad line and load regulation, instability, increased EMI radiation, and noise sensitivity. Refer to the Five Steps to a Great PCB Layout for a Step-Down Converter technical brief for a detailed discussion of general best practices. The following are specific recommendations for the TPS62865 and TPS62867:

  • The input capacitor or capacitors must be placed as close as possible to the VIN and PGND pins of the device. This is the most critical component placement. Route the input capacitor or capacitors directly to the VIN and PGND pins, avoiding vias.
  • Place the output inductor close to the SW pins. Minimize the copper area at the switch node.
  • Place the output capacitor or capacitors ground close to the PGND pin and route it directly, avoiding vias. Minimize the length of the connection from the inductor to the output capacitor. Connect the VOS pin directly to the output capacitor.
  • Sensitive traces, such as the connections to the VOS, FB, and VSEL pins, must be connected with short traces and be routed away from any noise source, such as the SW pin.
  • Make the connections from the input voltage of the system and the connection to the load as wide as possible to minimize voltage drops.
  • Have a solid ground plane between PGND and the input and output capacitor ground connections.
  • The sensitive signal ground connections for the feedback voltage divider must be connected to a separate signal ground trace.
