Layout Guidelines
To optimize maximum efficiency and low noise performance
from a PI354x-00 design, layout considerations are necessary.
Reducing trace resistance and minimizing high current loop
returns along with proper component placement will
contribute to optimized performance.
A typical buck converter circuit is shown in Figure 68. The
potential areas of high parasitic inductance and resistance
are the circuit return paths, shown as LR below.

Figure 69 — Current flow: Q1 closed
When Q1 is on and Q2 is off, the majority of CIN’s current is
used to satisfy the output load and to recharge the COUT
capacitors. When Q1 is off and Q2 is on, the load current is
supplied by the inductor and the COUT capacitor as shown in
Figure 70. During this period CIN is also being recharged by
the VIN. Minimizing CIN loop inductance is important to
reduce peak voltage excursions when Q1 turns off. Also, the
difference in area between the CIN loop and COUT loop is vital
to minimize switching and GND noise.
Figure 68 — Typical Buck Regulator
The path between the COUT and CIN capacitors is of
particular importance since the AC currents are flowing
through both of them when Q1 is turned on. Figure 69,
schematically, shows the reduced trace length between input
and output capacitors. The shorter path lessens the effects
that copper trace parasitics can have on the PI354x-00
performance.
