Power Stage Layout
```
+-----------------------+
| Input Caps → DSM10g → Output Caps |
| ↓ |
| Inductor |
+-----------------------+
```
Critical Guidelines:
- Place input capacitors within 5mm of VIN and GND pins
- Use ground plane for improved thermal and EMI performance
- Route high-current paths with appropriate trace widths
- Keep sensitive analog traces away from switching nodes
- Implement thermal relief patterns for soldering
Layer Stackup Recommendation:
- Top Layer: Components and main power routing
- Inner Layer 1: Ground plane
- Inner Layer 2: Signal routing
- Bottom Layer: Additional ground and thermal dissipation
