APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
PCB Layout
Most of the headaches associated with PCB layout have
been alleviated or even eliminated by the high level of
integration of the LTM8022. The LTM8022 is nevertheless
a switching power supply, and care must be taken to
minimize EMI and ensure proper operation. Even with the
high level of integration, you may fail to achieve specifi ed
operation with a haphazard or poor layout. See Figure 4
for a suggested layout.
Ensure that the grounding and heatsinking are acceptable.
A few rules to keep in mind are:
