Yes. My shielded inductors are larger than the ones in the datasheets. > I would be surprised > if you see a difference between connecting a pad with two or three > 10mil traces and a solid plane.

The polygons are not very large, so maybe soldering is not a big problem? > Is that the LT1616? The picture was just an example, which I found with google. My DC/DC-Converters are here: http://www.ssalewski.de/PowerManager.pdf http://www.ssalewski.de/DC_DC_Converter.pdf For some there is a layout example in the datasheet (which I will try to follow) and for some not. I think I will start doing the layout for the parts with examples, then read carefully http://www.edn.com/contents/images/6347258.pdf and the layout notes in the datasheets, and do the remaining ones in a similar way.
