Layout Guidelines

The VM terminal should be bypassed to GND using a low-ESR ceramic bypass capacitor with a recommended value of 0.01 µF rated for VM. This capacitor should be placed as close to the VM pin as possible with a thick trace or ground plane connection to the device GND pin.

The VM pin must be bypassed to ground using a bulk capacitor rated for VM. This component may be an electrolytic.

A low-ESR ceramic capacitor must be placed in between the CPL and CPH pins. TI recommends a value of 0.022 µF rated for VM. Place this component as close as possible to the pins.

A low-ESR ceramic capacitor must be placed in between the VM and VCP pins. TI recommends a value of 0.22 µF rated for 16 V. Place this component as close as possible to the pins.

Bypass AVDD and DVDD to ground with a ceramic capacitor rated 6.3 V. Place this bypassing capacitor as close as possible to the pin.
