Layout Considerations
Due to the high switching frequency and high transient
currents produced by the LTC3225, careful board layout is
necessary for optimum performance. An unbroken ground
plane and short connections to all the external capacitors
improves performance and ensures proper regulation
under all conditions.
The voltages on the flying capacitor pins C+ and C– have
very fast rise and fall times. The high dv/dt values on
these pins can cause energy to capacitively couple to
adjacent printed circuit board traces. Magnetic fields can
also be generated if the flying capacitors are far from the
part (i.e. the loop area is large). To prevent capacitive
energy transfer, a Faraday shield may be used. This is a
grounded PC trace between the sensitive node and the
LTC3225 pins. For a high quality AC ground it should be
returned to a solid ground plane that extends all the way
to the LTC3225.
