The main issues in this PCB design are the capacitance values necessary to ensure good 

filtering and the effective decoupling between the low voltage inputs (IN1, IN2, IN3, IN4 and 

EN for each channel) and the HV switching signals (XDCR, HVOUT, etc.), which is 

ensured by the implemented layer separation.
