To ensure reliability of the device, following common printed-circuit board layout guidelines are recommended:
- Use bypass capacitors on the power supply pins and place them as close to the device as possible. A 0.1µF capacitor is recommended, but transient performance can be improved by having 1µF and 0.1µF capacitors in parallel as bypass capacitors.
- The high drive capability of this device creates fast edges into light loads so routing and load conditions should be considered to prevent ringing.
- A 0.1µF capacitor can be added between GNDA and GNDB to improve performances of CMTI.
