A 4-layer PCB with a solid ground plane and a separate power plane is recommended. Keep the analog and digital sections separate, and use a common ground point for the analog and digital grounds.
Use a reliable communication protocol like SPI or I2C, and ensure proper signal termination and routing. Also, use a common clock source and ensure the microcontroller's clock frequency is within the SCC2691's specified range.
The SCC2691 has a maximum junction temperature of 150°C. Ensure good airflow, use a heat sink if necessary, and avoid blocking the thermal pads on the package. Also, follow the recommended PCB layout guidelines for thermal management.
The SCC2691 has an internal POR and BOD circuitry. Ensure the power supply is stable and within the recommended voltage range. Also, use an external reset circuit if the internal POR is not sufficient for your application.
The SCC2691 has internal ESD protection, but it's still important to follow proper ESD handling procedures during assembly and testing. Use ESD-protective packaging and handling equipment, and ensure the PCB design includes ESD protection components if necessary.
