A good PCB layout for optimal thermal performance involves placing the device near a thermal pad or a heat sink, and ensuring good airflow around the device. The datasheet provides some guidelines, but a more detailed application note from TI (SLUA271) provides additional guidance.
To ensure reliable start-up and shutdown, it's essential to follow the recommended power-up and power-down sequences outlined in the datasheet. Additionally, ensure that the input voltage rises and falls monotonically, and that the input capacitor is properly sized to handle the inrush current.
When selecting the output capacitor, consider the capacitance value, ESR, and voltage rating. A higher capacitance value can reduce output ripple, but may increase the start-up time. The ESR should be low enough to minimize output impedance, and the voltage rating should be higher than the output voltage.
To minimize EMI, use a shielded inductor, keep the switching node (SW) away from sensitive nodes, and use a common-mode choke or ferrite bead on the input lines. Additionally, ensure good PCB layout practices, such as separating the power and ground planes, and using a solid ground plane.
Thermal design considerations include ensuring good airflow around the device, using a heat sink if necessary, and keeping the device away from other heat sources. The datasheet provides thermal resistance values, which can be used to estimate the junction temperature.
