9.1 Application Information
Figure 11 shows a buck converter application with VCC connected to a 5-V supply. It is critical to optimize the
power loop (loop impedance from VIN capacitor to PGND). Having a high power loop inductance causes
significant ringing in the SW node and also causes the associated power loss. Refer to the layout guidelines to
minimize this power loop.

10 Power Supply Recommendations
For proper operation, power-up the VCC rail before the VIN rail. Similarly, power-down the VIN rail before the
VCC rail.
CAUTION
Failure to follow correct power-up and power-down procedures can cause catastrophic
failure of the device.
