Layout Consideration
Follow the PCB layout guidelines for optimal performance of the device.
Keep the traces of the main current paths as short and wide as possible.
Put the input capacitor as close as possible to VIN and VIN pins.
SW node is with high frequency voltage swing and should be kept at small area. Keep analog components away from
the SW node to prevent stray capacitive noise pickup.
Connect feedback network behind the output capacitors. Keep the loop area small. Place the feedback components
near the device.
Connect all analog grounds to common node and then connect the common node to the power ground behind the
output capacitors.
An example of PCB layout guide is shown in Figure 10 and Figure 11 for reference.
