Adjustable Output Voltage Version
DS011394-12
FIGURE 2.
As in any switching regulator, layout is very important. Rap-
idly switching currents associated with wiring inductance
generate voltage transients which can cause problems. For
minimal inductance and ground loops, the length of the leads
indicated by heavy lines should be kept as short as pos-
sible. Single-point grounding (as indicated) or ground plane
construction should be used for best results. When using the
Adjustable version, physically locate the programming resis-
tors near the regulator, to keep the sensitive feedback wiring
short.
