Layout Example

Figure 10-1 shows a 2-layer PCB layout example with the signals and key components labeled.

GUID-5397D735-0FF2-4D68-9561-524F4DD9EA74-low.gifFigure 10-1 Layout Example

Figure 10-2 and Figure 10-3 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.

Note:

The location of the PCB cutout between the primary side and secondary sides, which ensures isolation performance.
