Preliminary
Layout Guide
z A full GND plane without gap break.
z The input capacitor should be placed as close as possible to the input for good filtering.
z The switching path should be shorter to prevent EMI problems.
z The inductor and diode must be placed closely to the switch pin.
z The feedback path should be away from the inductor.
z The feedback resistor should be connected directly to the GND.
