SLUSDG1C June 2020 – August 2022 BQ25792
PRODUCTION DATA
Figure 12-2 shows the recommended placement and routing of external components. The components are labelled with "R," "C" or "L" to indicate resistor, capacitor or inductor and a number that corresponds to the numbered list in Section 12.1. Since the layout guidelines are listed in priority order, this number also provides a priority for component placement.
The placement of C1 and C2 0.1 µF PMID and SYS capacitors is critical for noise filtering. They should be placed on the same layer as the BQ25792, as close to the IC as possible. This will generally require that the traces to connect SW1 and SW2 to the inductor are routed on a different layer.
The SW1 and SW2 pins are routed to vias placed under the IC and then back out on an inner PCB layer. This supports the tightest placement of C1 and C2 capctiors as described above. These vias are also used to route to the C7 BTST1 and BTST2 capactiors on the bottom layer as shown.
