RT8284N
Layout Considerations
For best performance of the RT8284N, the following layout
guidelines must be strictly followed.
` Input capacitor must be placed as close to the IC as
possible.
(c) Copper Area = 30mm2 ,θJA = 54°C/W
(d) Copper Area = 50mm2 ,θJA = 51°C/W
(e) Copper Area = 70mm2 ,θJA = 49°C/W
` SW should be connected to inductor by wide and short
trace. Keep sensitive components away from this trace.
` The feedback components must be connected as close
to the device as possible
The feedback components
must be connected as close
to the device as possible.
Input capacitor must be placed
as close to the IC as possible.
