PRODUCTION DATA
The copper losses (resistance and inductance) can be minimized by the use of mutual ground and power planes (tracks) where possible. If that is not possible, use wide tracks to reduce the losses. If several devices are being powered from a common power source, a star-connected system for the track must be deployed. Do not connect the devices in series, because that type of connection cascades the resistive losses. The position of the decoupling capacitors is important. They must be as close to the devices as possible in order to reduce losses. See Section 10 for more details.
