PRODUCTION DATA
Good layout greatly improves transient performance, PSRR, and noise. To minimize voltage drop on the device input during load transients, connect the capacitance on IN and BIAS as close as possible to the device. This capacitance also minimizes the effects of parasitic inductance and resistance of the input source and, therefore, improves stability. To achieve optimum transient performance and accuracy, connect the top side of R1 in Figure 7-2 as close as possible to the load. If BIAS is connected to IN, connect BIAS as close to the sense point of the input supply as possible. This connection minimizes the voltage drop on BIAS during transient conditions and improves turn-on response.
Knowing the device power dissipation and proper sizing of the thermal plane connected to the thermal pad is critical. Knowing these parameters helps avoid thermal shutdown and provides reliable operation. Power dissipation of the device is calculated using Equation 12 and depends on input voltage and load conditions.

Power dissipation is minimized and greater efficiency achieved by using the lowest possible input voltage necessary to achieve the required output voltage regulation.
On the VSON (DSQ) package, the primary conduction path for heat is through the exposed pad to the printed circuit board (PCB). Connect the pad to ground or leave floating. However, verify the thermal pad is attached to an appropriate amount of copper PCB area so the device does not overheat. The maximum junction-to-ambient thermal resistance is calculated using Equation 13 and depends on the maximum ambient temperature, maximum device junction temperature, and power dissipation of the device.
