Application Report Abstract

The Bypass Capacitor in High-Speed Environments (Rev. A)

High-speed environments use a bypass capacitor to remove false signals generated by internal switching. Removing this serious problem provides a more reliable system. This document discusses the bypass capacitor, its placement in circuits, and why the location of the capacitor is so important. Illustrations show the Vcc line behavior with varying distances, frequencies, and resistive loads.
