Layout Guidelines

Figure 7-2 shows a layout recommendation with the critical placement of the decoupling capacitors (as close as possible to the AMC0386-Q1 supply pins). This section also depicts the placement of other components required by the device.

TI recommends placing a guard ring around the SNSP pin and to connect the guard ring to AGND. The guard ring prevents leakage currents from forming a parallel current path between HVIN and SNSP. The guard ring is partially routed underneath the device, reducing the clearance distance between the high-voltage and low-voltage side. Place a keep-out zone around pins 7 and 8 (both pins have no internal connection) to recover the full clearance distance of >8mm.

To maximize the creepage distance between the high-voltage and low-voltage side, TI recommends placing another keep-out zone around pin 15 as shown in Figure 7-2.
