TYPICAL SURFACE MOUNT PC BOARD LAYOUT,
ADJUSTABLE OUTPUT (4X SIZE)
Layout is very important in switching regulator designs. Rap-
idly switching currents associated with wiring inductance can
generate voltage transients which can cause problems. For
minimal inductance and ground loops, the wires indicated by
heavy lines (in
printed circuit traces and should be kept as short as
possible. For best results, external components should be
located as close to the switcher IC as possible using ground
plane construction or single point grounding.
If open core inductors are used, special care must be
taken as to the location and positioning of this type of induc-
tor. Allowing the inductor flux to intersect sensitive feedback,
IC ground path, and C
OUT wiring can cause problems.
