APPLICATIO S I FOR ATIO

4. Place the output current sense resistor right next to the

inductor output but oriented such that the IC’s current

sense feedback traces going to resistor are not long. The

feedback traces need to be routed together as a single pair

on the same layer at any given time with smallest trace

spacing possible. Locate any filter component on these

traces next to the IC and not at the sense resistor location.

5. Place output capacitors next to the sense resistor output

and ground.

6. Output capacitor ground connections need to feed into

same copper that connects to the input capacitor ground

before tying back into system ground.

General Rules

7. Connection of switching ground to system ground or

internal ground plane should be single point. If the system

has an internal system ground plane, a good way to do this

is to cluster vias into a single star point to make the

connection.

8. Route analog ground as a trace tied back to IC ground

(analog ground pin if present) before connecting to any

other ground. Avoid using the system ground plane. CAD

trick: make analog ground a separate ground net and use

a 0Ω resistor to tie analog ground to system ground.

9. A good rule of thumb for via count for a given high

current path is to use 0.5A per via. Be consistent.

10. If possible, place all the parts listed above on the same

PCB layer.

11. Copper fills or pours are good for all power connec-

tions except as noted above in Rule 3. You can also use

copper planes on multiple layers in parallel too—this

helps with thermal management and lower trace induc-

tance improving EMI performance further.

12. For best current programming accuracy provide a

Kelvin connection from RSENSE to CSP and BAT. See

Figure 12 as an example.

It is important to keep the parasitic capacitance on the RT,

CSP and BAT pins to a minimum. The traces connecting

these pins to their respective resistors should be as short

as possible.

Important Safety Notes

Although every effort is made to meet and exceed all

required “SMBus Charger V1.1” safety features it is the

responsibility of the battery pack to protect itself from

excessive currents or voltages. The LTC1760 is not itself

a safety device. Consult your battery pack manufacturer

for more information.
