Layout guidelines
L6726A provides control functions and high current integrated drivers to implement high-
current step-down DC-DC converters. In this kind of application, a good layout is very
important.
The first priority when placing components for these applications has to be reserved to the
power section, minimizing the length of each connection and loop as much as possible. To
minimize noise and voltage spikes (EMI and losses) power connections (highlighted in
Figure
traces: loop must be anyway minimized. The critical components, i.e. the power MOSFETs,
must be close one to the other. The use of multi-layer printed circuit board is recommended.

The input capacitance (C
placed close to the power section in order to eliminate the stray inductance generated by the
copper traces. Low ESR and ESL capacitors are preferred, MLCC are suggested to be
connected near the HS drain.
Use proper number of vias when power traces have to move between different planes on the
PCB in order to reduce both parasitic resistance and inductance. Moreover, reproducing the
same high-current trace on more than one PCB layer will reduce the parasitic resistance
associated to that connection.
