PCB layout tips for thermal vias
Paul Rako @ edn.com discuss about thermal PCB layout tips. Texas Instruments' WEBENCH is a neat program, especially because it has Mentor Graphic’s FloTherm built in to help you see the hot spots in switching regulators. This is what taught me that a modern buck regulator will have...
