The PCB layout is an important step to maintain
the high performance of the TPS92201 device.
- The input/output capacitors
and the inductor should be placed as close as possible to the IC. This keeps
the power traces short. Routing these power traces direct and wide results
in low trace resistance and low parasitic inductance.
- The low side of the input and
output capacitors must be connected properly to the power GND to avoid a GND
potential shift.
- The sense traces connected to
FB are signal traces. Special care should be taken to avoid noise being
induced. Keep these traces away from SW nodes.
- GND layers might be used for shielding.
