Board Layout Recommendation to Improve PSRR and Noise Performance

To improve AC measurements like PSRR, output noise, and transient response, design the board with separate ground planes for VIN and VOUT, with each ground plane connected only at the ground pin of the device. In addition, the ground connection for the bypass capacitor should connect directly to the ground pin of the device.
