PCB Layout

Figure 6-3 through Figure 6-8 show the board layout. The design offers appropriate test points to configure the following:

  • PGOOD monitor
  • Precision enable and input voltage UVLO
  • Bode plot measurement
  • External clock synchronization

The 22-pin Enhanced HotRod package enables a very small solution size and a low-EMI design. The PCB consists of a 4-layer design with 2-oz copper on all layers and an array of thermal vias to connect to all four layers. Input and output connectors with adjacent sense points for the supply and load enable a convenient setup to power the EVM, measure efficiency, and so forth.
