Texas Instruments provides a recommended PCB layout in the datasheet, but it's also recommended to follow general high-frequency PCB design guidelines, such as keeping the input and output traces short and away from each other, using a solid ground plane, and minimizing vias and thermal reliefs.
To ensure stability, follow the recommended component values and PCB layout, and make sure the input and output capacitors are properly selected and placed. Additionally, ensure that the feedback resistors are properly matched and that the loop gain is sufficient. If oscillations occur, try adding a small capacitor (e.g., 10nF) in parallel with the feedback resistors.
The maximum input voltage is not explicitly stated in the datasheet, but it's generally recommended to keep the input voltage within the specified operating range (2.7V to 5.5V) to ensure reliable operation and prevent damage to the device.
The LM27966SQ/NOPB is rated for operation up to 125°C, but it's essential to consider the thermal design and ensure that the device is properly heat-sinked and that the junction temperature (Tj) remains within the specified range. Consult the datasheet and thermal design guidelines for more information.
Start by verifying the input voltage, output load, and component values. Check for proper PCB layout, soldering, and component placement. Use an oscilloscope to monitor the output voltage and current. Consult the datasheet and application notes for troubleshooting guidelines and common pitfalls to avoid.
