Creepage and clearance requirements should be applied according to the specific equipment isolation standards of an application.

Care should be taken to maintain the creepage and clearance distance of a board design to ensure that the mounting pads of the

isolator on the printed-circuit board do not reduce this distance. Creepage and clearance on a printed-circuit board become equal
