Layout Guidelines

Make sure that traces on the input and outputs of the device are wide enough to handle the desired currents. For this device, the output trace must be larger to accommodate the larger available current.

Place input and output capacitors as close to the device as possible to take advantage of the high-frequency, noise-filtering properties.
