For device reliability, following common
printed-circuit board layout guidelines is recommended.
- Bypass capacitors should be
used on power supplies. Place the capacitors as close as possible to the
VCCA, VCCB, and GND pin.
- Short trace lengths should be
used to avoid excessive loading.
- PCB signal trace-lengths must
be kept short enough so that the round-trip delay of any reflection is less
than the one shot duration, approximately 30ns, causing any reflection to
encounter low impedance at the source driver.
