ISL81601EVAL2Z 3. PCB Layout Guidelines PCB Layout Guidelines Careful attention to layout requirements is necessary for successful implementation of an ISL81601 based DC/DC converter. The ISL81601 switches at a very high frequency; therefore the switching times are very short. At these switching frequencies, even the shortest trace has significant impedance.
