11.2 Layout Example

Figure 11-1 shows a 2-layer PCB layout example with the signals and key components labeled.

UCC21520 UCC21520A Layout ExampleFigure 11-1 Layout Example

Figure 11-2 and Figure 11-3 shows top and bottom layer traces and copper.

Note:

There are no PCB traces or copper between the primary and secondary side, which ensures isolation performance.

PCB traces between the high-side and low-side gate drivers in the output stage are increased to maximize the creepage distance for high-voltage operation, which will also minimize cross-talk between the switching node VSSA (SW), where high dv/dt may exist, and the low-side gate drive due to the parasitic capacitance coupling.
