(2) Route the LX line between RN5T566A and an inductor as short and wide as possible, and yet should not add other redundant lines on it (3) Connect the GND line of “Cout” directly to the internal GND plane with multiple vias, in order to reduce impedance as small as possible. (Target: 50mΩ or less) (4) Begin to route the VOUT line from near not “L” but “Cout”. (5) Place “Cin” as close as possible to RN5T566A. (Higher priority level is “Cin” < L < “Cout” in the close distance order with RN5T566A.) Note: For evaluations being compliant with each DCDC specifications, the PCB layout shown in Fig.1-2 provides the routing for VCCP1 and VCCP2 separately. But, the routing for them is permitted to unity when designing a PCB layout in actually. (6) Place inductors for DCDC1 and DCDC2 without becoming too close between them, in order to avoid the electromagnetic interference. ©2012 Page 4 RN5T566A PCB LAYOUT GUIDE (7) Route the VFB line to be not the parallel routing to other lines, which may cause noise, because of being easily influenced by noise. Route the VFB line as possible and put some distance from the other lines if need the parallel routing due to limitations of terminal configuration. To maintain a stable operation, note against extra parasitic capacitance. (8) Place R1, R2, and Cf as close as possible in the same layer, and connect GND of R2 to a stable GND. 1.2 <LDO block> Vout VFBLDO2 Cout R1 (1) (2) R2 R3 Fig.1-3: LDO Block Evaluation Board Pattern (Top Layer) ■PCB Layout Procedure for LDO (1) Place “Cout” as close as possible to RN5T566A to get better a load regulation. (2) Route the VFBLDO line output from LDO (LDO2 and LDO4), which can change the output voltage by external resistors, not to be the parallel routing to the source of noise. In this time, place external resistors as close as possible to the VFBLDO line, and thereby the extra parasitic capacitance is not required. Note: In the evaluation board shown in Fig.1-3, two resistors are placed for the resistance value in the upper side, in order to control the output easily at the evaluation. ©2012 Page 5 RN5T566A PCB LAYOUT GUIDE 2.
