EMI Parasitics Snubbers.mdEMI
EMI caused mainly by:
- parasitic inductance of shoot-through path (Cin-HS-LS)
- poor input capacitors
- fast switching
- high Qrr of LS mosfet

bypass caps
voltage signal traces
- vulnerable to L coupling
- place a resistor at the end
current signal traces
- vulnerable to C coupling
Layout Guidelines
- "To avoid large negative transients on the switch node VSSA (HS) pin, the parasitic inductances between the source of the top transistor and the source of the bottom transistor must be minimized." (UCC21330x)

- C0G caps are more temperature stable than X7R.
- Resistor should handle 2W power
