  • Hi Louis,

    Some common feedback for all rails:

    1) Please do not populate resistors to connect AGND to PGND. Per datasheet p.7, a single connection is made internal to the device so it is not recommended to connect these on your PCB

    2) I would not recommend having no programmed soft-start at all (leaving STSEL floating and SS/TR floating). Connect STSEL to AGND to enable the internally-set soft start of ~1.2ms. I would also recommend including a placeholder for a small soft start capacitor on SS/TR pin to AGND be able to adjust the soft start time, unless you have already checked (for example, on an evaluation board or other prototypeand are happy with startup with just the built-in 1.2ms soft start.
