10 Layout

10.1 Layout Guidelines

Figure 10-1 shows a layout recommendation with the critical placement of the decoupling capacitors. The same

component reference designators are used as in Section 9. Decoupling capacitors are placed as close as

possible to the AMC3302 supply pins. For best performance, place the shunt resistor close to the INP and INN

inputs of the AMC3302 and keep the layout of both connections symmetrical.

To avoid causing errors in the measurement by the input bias currents of the AMC3302, connect the high-side

ground pin (HGND) to the IIN-side of the shunt resistor. Use a separate trace in the layout to make this

connection to maintain equal currents in the IIN and INP traces.
