The following images show examples of a PCB layout
with the TMUX7348F-EP. Some key considerations are:
- For reliable operation, connect a decoupling capacitor ranging from 0.1 µF to 10
µF between VDD and VSS to GND. We recommend a 0.1 µF and 1 µF
capacitor, placing the lowest value capacitor as close to the pin as possible. Ensure
that the capacitor voltage rating is sufficient for the VDD and
VSS supplies.
- Multiple decoupling capacitors can be used if
their is a lot of noise in the system. For example, a 0.1-µF and 1-µF can be placed on
the supply pins. If multiple capacitors are used, then it is recommended to place the
lowest value capacitor closest to the supply pin.
- Keep the input lines as short as possible.
- Use a solid ground plane to help distribute heat and reduce electromagnetic interference (EMI) noise pickup.
- Do not run sensitive analog traces in parallel with digital traces. Avoid crossing digital and analog traces if possible, and only make perpendicular crossings when necessary.
