3) There are two loops in the power circuit that carry
18
high-frequency switching currents. One loop is
when the MOSFET is on—from the input filter
capacitor positive terminal, through the inductor, the
internal MOSFET, and the current-sense resistor, to
the input capacitor negative terminal. The other loop
is when the MOSFET is off—from the input capacitor
positive terminal, through the inductor, the rectifier
diode, output filter capacitor, to the input capaci-
tor negative terminal. Analyze these two loops and
make the loop areas as small as possible. Wherever

Reducing the loop area also reduces radiation dur-
