8.2.2.11 C20

The capacitor at the VCC pin provides noise filtering and stability for the VCC regulator. The recommended value of C20 should be no smaller than 0.1 µF, and should be a good-quality, low-ESR, ceramic capacitor. A value of 1 µF was selected for this design. C20 should be 10 x C8.

If operating without VCCX, then

Equation 41. fOSC x (QCBuck + Boost) + ILOAD(INTERNAL)

must be less than the VCC current limit.
