For best overall performance, place all circuit components on the same side of the printed circuit board (PCB) and as near as practical to the respective LDO pin connections. Place ground return connections for the input and output capacitors as close to the GND pin as possible, using wide, component-side, copper planes. Avoid using vias and long traces to create LDO circuit connections to the input capacitor, output capacitor, or the resistor divider because doing so negatively affects system performance. This grounding and layout scheme minimizes inductive parasitics, and thereby reduces load-current transients, minimizes noise, and increases circuit stability. A ground reference plane is recommended to be embedded either in the PCB or located on the bottom side of the PCB opposite the components. This reference plane provides accuracy of the output voltage and shields the LDO from noise.
