SBASAD0B March 2022 – December 2024 AMC23C10
PRODUCTION DATA
The AMC23C10 does not require any specific power-up sequencing. The high-side power supply (VDD1) is decoupled with a low-ESR, 100nF capacitor (C1) parallel to a low-ESR, 1µF capacitor (C2). The low-side power supply (VDD2) is equally decoupled with a low-ESR, 100nF capacitor (C3) parallel to a low-ESR, 1µF capacitor (C4). Place all four capacitors (C1, C2, C3, and C4) as close to the device as possible. Figure 7-5 shows a decoupling schematic for the AMC23C10.
For high VDD1 supply voltages (>5.5V) place a 10Ω resistor (R4) in series with the VDD1 power supply for additional filtering.
Capacitors must provide adequate effective capacitance under the applicable DC bias conditions experienced in the application. Multilayer ceramic capacitors (MLCCs) typically exhibit only a fraction of the nominal capacitance under real-world conditions and this factor must be taken into consideration when selecting these capacitors. This problem is especially acute in low-profile capacitors, in which the dielectric field strength is higher than in taller components. Reputable capacitor manufacturers provide capacitance versus DC bias curves that greatly simplify component selection.
