For best performance of the RT6296D, the following
layout guidelines must be strictly followed.
Input capacitor must be placed as close to the IC as
possible.
SW should be connected to inductor by wide and
short trace. Keep sensitive components away from
this trace.
Keep every trace connected to pin as wide as
possible for improving thermal dissipation.
