If you need low T

& T
J
or large P
D
(Power Dissipation), The
dual SW pins (5 & 6) and V
SS
pins(7 & 8)on the
SO-8 package are internally connected to die pad, The
evaluation board should be allowed for maximum copper
area at output (SW) pins.
1. Connect FB circuits (R
A
, R
B
, C
C
) as closely as
possible and keep away from inductor flux for pure
V
FB
.
2. Connect
C
VCC
to Vcc and Vss pin as closely as
possible to get good power filter effect.
3. Connect
R
OCSET
to Vcc and OCSET pin as closely as
possible.
4. Connect ground side of the C
IN
& D1 & C
OUT
as closely
as possible and use ground plane for best performance.

Layout numbering comparison
Connect FB circuits closer and keep away from L1.
Use vias to conduct the heat into the backside of PCB
layer. The heat sink at output (SW) pins should be
allowed for maximum solder-painted area.
