STABILITY COMPENSATION CONT’D
In the case of high R_FB1 used, the frequency
compensation needs to be adjusted
correspondingly. As show in Figure 7, adding a
capacitor in paralleled with R_FB1 or increasing the
compensation capacitance at COMP pin helps the
system stability.

single point for best noise immunity. Connect
exposed pad to power ground copper area with
copper and vias.
4) Use copper plane for power GND for best heat
dissipation and noise immunity.
5) Place feedback resistor close to FB pin.
6) Use short trace connecting HSB-C_HSB-SW loop

PC Board Layout Guidance
When laying out the printed circuit board, the
following checklist should be used to ensure proper
operation of the IC.
1) Arrange the power components to reduce the
AC loop size consisting of C_IN, IN pin, SW pin
and the schottky diode.
2) Place input decoupling ceramic capacitor C_IN as
close to IN pin as possible. C_IN is connected
power GND with vias or short and wide path.
3) Return FB, COMP and ISET to signal GND pin,
and connect the signal GND to power GND at a
