I am trying a similar circuit with AP63205WU-7 for 5v output, did you get your PCB fabricated and tested out?
I made mistakes in layout of the PCB and now the AP63205 is emitting smoke due to overheating!

I'm one of those people. I found through testing with an Agilent LCR meter that a copper plane/pour below the inductor both lowers the inductance and reduces the Q. Just don't do it.

Of which types? How many styles have you tested?

Yes I did and it's working fine so far, I hope it helps you.
Can you share your layout by a chance?

Its a total disaster but I will follow your layout design and order new PCBs to test out the new design and hopefully not fry the AP62305s ;D
