A 4-layer PCB with a solid ground plane and a separate power plane is recommended. Keep the signal traces short and away from noise sources. Use a common mode choke or a ferrite bead to filter the input voltage.
Ensure good airflow around the component, avoid blocking the airflow, and use a heat sink if necessary. Monitor the component's temperature using a thermocouple or an infrared thermometer.
The maximum allowed voltage drop across the input capacitors is 1.5V. Exceeding this value may affect the component's performance and reliability.
Yes, but ensure the component is properly secured to the PCB using a suitable adhesive or mechanical fastening method. Also, consider using a vibration-dampening material or a shock-absorbing mount.
Use an oscilloscope to monitor the input and output voltages, and check for any signs of overheating or physical damage. Consult the datasheet and application notes for troubleshooting guides and FAQs.
