Minimize potential stray noise coupling from SWS pin to noise-sensitive signals.
- Keep some distance between SWS network and other connections.
- The RC damping network (RSWS, CSWS) and the TVS diode (DSWS) should be as close to the source pin of QS as possible instead of SWS pin, so the gate-to-source pin of QS can be effectively protected.
- Keep the return path for di/dt current through CSWS and DSWS separate from the IC local GND and FB signal return paths. Return CSWS back to the ground node at RCS, not at the IC.
