Layout Guidelines

A proper layout is critical for the operation of a switched mode power supply, even more at high switching frequencies. Therefore the PCB layout of the TPS62147, TPS62148 demands careful attention to ensure operation and to get the performance specified. A poor layout can lead to issues like poor regulation (both line and load), stability and accuracy weaknesses, increased EMI radiation and noise sensitivity.

See Section 10.5.2 for the recommended layout of the TPS62147, TPS62148, which is designed for common external ground connections. The input capacitor must be placed as close as possible between the VIN and GND pin of TPS62147, TPS62148. Also connect the VOS pin in the shortest way to VOUT at the output capacitor.

Provide low inductive and resistive paths for loops with high di/dt. Therefore paths conducting the switched load current must be as short and wide as possible. Provide low capacitive paths (with respect to all other nodes) for wires with high dv/dt. Therefore the input and output capacitance must be placed as close as possible to the IC pins and parallel wiring over long distances as well as narrow traces must be avoided. Loops which conduct an alternating current must outline an area as small as possible, as this area is proportional to the energy radiated.

Sensitive nodes like FB and VOS must be connected with short wires and not nearby high dv/dt signals (for example SW). As they carry information about the output voltage, they must be connected as close as possible to the actual output voltage (at the output capacitor). The capacitor on the SS/TR pin as well as the FB resistors, R1 and R2, must be kept close to the IC and connect directly to those pins and the system ground plane. The same applies to R3 if FB2 is used to scale the output voltage.

The package uses the pins for power dissipation. Thermal vias on the VIN, GND and SW pins help to spread the heat through the pcb.

In case any of the digital inputs EN, FSEL or MODE must be tied to the input supply voltage at VIN, the connection must be made directly at the input capacitor as indicated in the schematics. Please also see the EVM User´s Guide SLVUBE9.
