SL Power Electronics recommends a 2-layer PCB with a solid ground plane on the bottom layer and a thermal relief pattern on the top layer to ensure optimal thermal performance.
To ensure reliable start-up, ensure that the input voltage is within the specified range, and the input capacitance is within the recommended range. Also, ensure that the output voltage is not pre-biased before applying input power.
The maximum allowable output capacitance is 220uF. Exceeding this value may affect the stability of the power supply.
While the MINT1110A2408K01 is rated for operation up to 80°C, it's recommended to derate the output power by 2.5% per degree above 60°C to ensure reliable operation in high-temperature environments.
To troubleshoot output voltage deviations, check the input voltage, output load, and ambient temperature. Also, verify that the output voltage sense lines are properly connected and not subject to noise or interference.
