How critical is PCB layout when using a Boreas driver?

How can it affect performance?

Boreas drivers are switching devices and the quality of the output is closely linked to the PCB layout. It is important that the integration is done properly to ensure proper operation and achieve good output performance.

The product datasheet lists PCB layout integration requirements. Please consult our application note on PCB layout; it goes into further detail explaining key features of the layout, helping identifying them, and explaining the principles to follow.

Not following these guidelines may result in poor output performance, distorted or choppy waveforms, or simply no output.
