Thanks istvan Novak and Steve weir for the reply. FB is drawing ~ 3A of current from n1(1.375V), because of this the target impedance is coming very low ~ 19.5 mOhm (@ FB) I simulated the sinario and found that the plane impedance graph (of n1) at the input of FB is going above target impedance @ 1MHz. does that means decoupling is Required even at the input of Ferrite bead?
