Recommendations
For proper thermal management and to take
advantage of the low R_DS(ON) of the AAT4280, a few
circuit board layout rules should be followed: V_IN
and V_OUT should be routed using wider than normal
traces, and GND should be connected to a ground
plane. To maximize package thermal dispation and
power handling capacity of the AAT4280 SOT23-6/
SC70JW-8 package, the ground plane area con-
nected to the ground pins should be made as large
as possible. For best performance, C_IN and C_OUT
should be placed close to the package pins.
Evaluation Board Layout
The AAT4280 evaluation layout follows the printed
circuit board layout recommendations, and can be
used for good applications layout. Refer to Figures 1
through 3.
