It is a good practice to provide low-impedance ceramic capacitor bypassing of the VCC and OUT pins. Values in the range of 10 nF to 1 µF are recommended. Some system topologies are insensitive to the values of these capacitors; however, some are not and require minimization of the value of the bypass capacitor. Input capacitance on a plug-in board may cause a large inrush current as the capacitor charges through the low-impedance power bus when inserted. This stresses the connector contacts and causes a short voltage sag on the input bus. Small amounts of capacitance (that is, 10 nF to 0.1 µF) are often tolerable in these systems.
