Hi Istvan;
Is this behavior common to all types of DC-DC converters (i.e. Buck, Bo=
ost,
etc) Topology? Is there any reference
that I can find to discuss these situations? Thanks
Regards;
Don Pakbaz

Hi Bala,
DC-DC converters have a tendency to produce high-frequency ringing on
the main switching waveform edges, which can couple to nearby signal
traces. It can affect any signal, not only reset. You need to select
your converters carefully so that they do not produce too much noise an=
d
make sure there is no sensitive signal running too close to the
converter. There are no specifications or generic rules that would wor=
k
for many situations; you need to look at this on a case-by-case basis.
