2) Place capacitors on V
DD
, IN, and SS as close as
possible to the IC and the corresponding pin using
direct traces. Keep the power ground plane (con-
nected to PGND) and signal ground plane (connect-
ed to SGND) separate. PGND and SGND connect at
only one common point near the input bypass
capacitor return terminal.
3) Keep the high-current paths as short and wide as
possible. Keep the path of switching current short
and minimize the loop area formed by LX, the output
capacitors, and the input capacitors.
4) Connect IN, LX, and PGND separately to a large
copper area to help cool the IC to further improve
efficiency.
5) Ensure all feedback connections are short and
direct. Place the feedback resistors and compensa-
tion components as close as possible to the IC.
6) Route high-speed switching nodes (such as LX and
BST) away from sensitive analog areas (such as FB
and COMP).
