## 2. Design Considerations
### 2.1 Common Design Pitfalls and Solutions
Pitfall 1: Inadequate Input/Output Filtering
- Problem : Excessive noise and ripple affecting system performance
- Solution : Implement proper π-filters at input and output
- Input: 10μF electrolytic + 100nF ceramic capacitor
- Output: 22μF electrolytic + 100nF ceramic capacitor
Pitfall 2: Thermal Management Issues
- Problem : Overheating leading to reduced lifespan or failure
- Solution :
- Ensure adequate airflow around the module
- Use thermal vias in PCB for heat dissipation
- Maintain derating at high ambient temperatures
Pitfall 3: Incorrect Load Conditions
- Problem : Operation outside specified load range causing instability
- Solution :
- Maintain load between 10%-100% of rated capacity
- Implement soft-start circuits for capacitive loads
- Use pre-load resistors for very light load conditions
### 2.2 Compatibility Issues with Other Components
Digital Circuits
- Issue : Noise coupling to sensitive digital ICs
- Mitigation : Place digital components at least 10mm from converter
- Recommendation : Use separate ground planes with single-point connection
Analog Circuits
