switching noise and achieve maximum phase margin.
Use the following equations to calculate C
The TQFN-28 and TSSOP-16 are thermally enhanced
packages and can dissipate about 2.7W and 1.7W,
respectively. The high-power packages make the high-
frequency, high-current buck converter possible to
operate from a 12V or 24V bus. Calculate power dissi-

Use the following guidelines to layout the switching
voltage regulator.
1) Place the IN, V
2) Minimize the area and length of the high-current
3) Keep short the current loop formed by the lower
4) Place the Schottky diodes close to the lower
5) Keep the SGND and PGND isolated and connect
6) Run the current-sense lines CSP and CSN very
7) Avoid long traces between the V
8) Place the bank of output capacitors close to the load.
9) Distribute the power components evenly across the

can compromise efficiency since high currents are
involved in the application. Also, thicker copper
