For device reliability, following common printed-circuit board layout guidelines are recommended:
- Use short trace lengths to avoid excessive loading.
- Use bypass capacitors on the power supply pins and place them as close to the device as possible.
- A 0.1µF bypass capacitor is recommended, but transient performance can be improved by having both 1µF and 0.1µF capacitors in parallel with the smallest value capacitor placed closest to the power pin.
- The high drive capability of this device creates fast edges into light loads. Routing and load conditions should be considered to prevent ringing.
