NXP provides a recommended PCB layout in the application note AN11559, which includes guidelines for thermal vias, copper pours, and component placement to ensure optimal thermal performance.
NXP provides a filter design tool on their website, which can be used to optimize the output filter design based on the specific requirements of the application, such as output voltage, current, and frequency.
According to NXP, the maximum allowed voltage on the bootstrap pin (VBST) during startup is 6.5V. Exceeding this voltage may damage the device.
NXP recommends following a specific power-up and power-down sequence, as outlined in the datasheet, to ensure reliable operation. This includes ramping up the input voltage slowly and ensuring that the output voltage is stable before enabling the output stage.
NXP recommends using a low-ESR ceramic capacitor with a value of 10uF to 22uF as the input capacitor, depending on the specific application requirements and input voltage.
