Layout Guidelines

To achieve optimal electrical and thermal performance, an optimized PCB layout is required. Figure 34 and Figure 35, shows a typical PCB layout. Some considerations for an optimized layout are:

  • Use large copper areas for power planes (VIN, VOUT, and GND) to minimize conduction loss and thermal stress.
  • Place ceramic input and output capacitors close to the device pins to minimize high frequency noise.
  • Locate additional output capacitors between the ceramic capacitor and the load.
  • Place the output voltage feedback resistors, RFBT and RFBB, as close as possible to their respective pins.
  • Use multiple vias to connect the power planes to internal layers.
