Board Layout
Figure 3 through Figure 7 show the board layout for the LM46001EVM. The EVM offers resistors,
capacitors and test points to configure the output voltage, precision enable terminal, set frequency and
external clock synchronization.
The PWP HTSSOP-16 package offers an exposed thermal pad which must be soldered to the copper
landing on the PCB for optimal thermal performance. The PCB consists of a 4-layer design. There are 2-
oz copper planes on the top and bottom and 1-oz copper mid-layer planes to dissipate heat with an array
of thermal vias under the thermal pad to connect to all four layers.
Test points have been provided for ease of use to connect the power supply, required load and to monitor
critical signals. The 12-terminal edge connector can also be used to facilitate the use of a cable harness if
one is required (Mating connector part number: 307-020-500-202 by EDAC Inc).
