ADVANCE INFORMATION
The bypass capacitor must be placed near the TMAG5013 device for efficient power delivery with minimal inductance. The external pullup resistor must be placed near the microcontroller input to provide the most stable voltage at the input; alternatively, an integrated pullup resistor within the GPIO of the microcontroller can be used.
Generally, using PCB copper planes underneath the TMAG5013 device has no effect on magnetic flux, and does not interfere with device performance. This is because copper is not a ferromagnetic material. However, if nearby system components contain iron or nickel, those components can redirect magnetic flux in unpredictable ways.
