A 2-layer or 4-layer PCB with a thermal relief pattern and a solid ground plane is recommended. The device should be placed near a thermal pad or a heat sink to ensure good heat dissipation.
Ensure that the device is operated within the recommended junction temperature range (TJ) of -40°C to 150°C. Use a heat sink or thermal pad to maintain a safe junction temperature, and avoid overheating the device.
The maximum allowed voltage on the input pins is 6V, which is the absolute maximum rating. However, it's recommended to keep the input voltage within the recommended operating range of 4.5V to 5.5V for optimal performance.
Use ESD protection devices such as TVS diodes or ESD arrays on the input lines to protect the device from electrostatic discharge. Follow proper PCB design and layout guidelines to minimize ESD risks.
A 10nF to 100nF input capacitance is recommended to filter out noise and ensure stable operation. However, the optimal value may vary depending on the specific application and noise environment.
