PC Board Layout Checklist
When laying out a PC board follow one of the two
suggested approaches. The simple PC board layout
requires a dedicated ground plane layer. Also, for higher
currents, it is recommended to use a multilayer board to
help with heat sinking power components.
• The ground plane layer should not have any traces and
• Place C

components).

• Flood all unused areas on all layers with copper.
When laying out a printed circuit board, without a ground
plane, use the following checklist to ensure proper opera-
tion of the controller. These items are also illustrated in
Figure 8.
