Layout considerations
Layout is an important step in design for all switching power supplies.
High-speed operation (900 kHz) of the ST1S10 device demands careful attention to PCB
layout. Care must be taken in board layout to get device performance, otherwise the
regulator could show poor line and load regulation, stability issues as well as EMI problems.
It is critical to provide a low inductance, impedance ground path. Therefore, use wide and
short traces for the main current paths.
The input capacitor must be placed as close as possible to the IC pins as well as the
inductor and output capacitor. Use a common ground node for power ground and a different
one for control ground (AGND) to minimize the effects of ground noise. Connect these
ground nodes together underneath the device and make sure that small signal components
returning to the AGND pin and do not share the high current path of C
The feedback voltage sense line (V
routed away from noisy components and traces (e.g., SW line). Its trace should be
minimized and shielded by a guard-ring connected to the ground.
