SLUUCJ5 April 2022 TPS564242 , TPS564247
The board layout for the TPS564242EVM is shown in Figure 5-1, Figure 5-2, and Figure 5-3. The top layer contains the main power traces for VIN, VOUT, and ground. Also on the top layer are connections for the pins of the TPS564242 and a large area filled with ground. Most of the signal traces are also located on the top side. The input decoupling capacitors C3 are located as close to the IC as possible. The input and output connectors, test points, and all of the components are located on the top side. The bottom layer is a ground plane along with the signal ground copper fill and the feedback trace from the point of regulation to the top of the resistor divider network. Both the top layer and bottom layer use 2-oz copper thickness.
Figure 5-4 and Figure 5-5 are the TPS564242EVM board top view and bottom view, respectively.
