TPSM365R6: сan it be used on 2-layer PCBs?

Part Number: TPSM365R6

Tool/software:

Please advise me. Am I correct in understanding that TPSM365R6, TLVM236x5 and similar modules should not be used on 2-layer PCBs?

  • Hi Vladimir,

    Yes we advise to not use a 2-layer PCB due to possibilities of inadequate thermal resistance and shielding for sensitive traces. 

    Typically, we recommend 4 layers, top and bottom layer for part placement (EMI filter on the bottom, power-stage on top, or vice-versa); one middle plane as a full ground plane; and other middle plane for routing sensitive signals. 

    Thanks,

    Richard
