I want to realize a breakout board based on the LTC3864 with only the low-power components.
The high power component (coil, mosfet, schottky, output capacitors, ecc.) would be external for testing.
But in the envox page, the mod told me that it could be a complete waste of time, because the slightest difference in the placement of the trace can make a huge difference.
There is no possibility to make a breakout board based on a buck IC without integrated switch?
Could be wast of time also if I realize the BB board also with the high power component and remote only the v-sense direct to the post regulator?
In the PC power supply, for example, I noticed that the DC-DC converters IC are mounted on a separated PCB.
