Single-Point Grounding
Use a single-point ground connection from the input filter capacitor to
the area of copper connected to the SOURCE pins.

ꢁ
The PRIMARY BYPASS and SECONDARY BYPASS pin capacitor must
be located directly adjacent to the PRIMARY BYPASS-SOURCE and
SECONDARY BYPASS-SECONDARY GROUND pins respectively and
connections to these capacitors should be routed with short traces.

Primary Loop Area
The area of the primary loop that connects the input filter capacitor,
transformer primary and IC should be kept as small as possible.

Primary Clamp Circuit
A clamp is used to limit peak voltage on the DRAIN pin at turn-off.
This can be achieved by using an RCD clamp or a Zener diode
(~200 V) and diode clamp across the primary winding. To reduce
EMI, minimize the loop from the clamp components to the
transformer and IC.

Thermal Considerations
Rꢅ
The SOURCE pin is internally connected to the IC lead frame and
provides the main path to remove heat from the device. Therefore
the SOURCE pin should be connected to a copper area underneath
the IC to act not only as a single point ground, but also as a heat
sink. As this area is connected to the quiet source node, it can be
maximized for good heat sinking without compromising EMI
performance. Similarly for the output SR MOSFET, maximize the PCB
area connected to the pins on the package through which heat is
dissipated from the SR MOSFET.
