11.1 Layout Guidelines
Proper board layout helps to ensure optimal performance of the LM2757 circuit. The following guidelines are recommended:
- Place capacitors as close to the LM2757 as possible, and preferably on the same side of the board as the device.
- Use short, wide traces to connect the external capacitors to the LM2757 to minimize trace resistance and inductance.
- Use a low resistance connection between ground and the GND pin of the LM2757. Using wide traces and/or multiple vias to connect GND to a ground plane on the board is most advantageous.
