Decoupling Capacitors

During transitions, level-shifters can draw large transient currents from the power supply. Decoupling capacitors prevents voltage droops on the power rails by bypassing the power supply and creating a low-impedance path for high-frequency signals. This makes sure the level-shifter is provided a clean and stable supply voltage.

A typical recommendation is 0.1 µF, to help mitigate noise from power supplies. Place decoupling capacitors as close as possible to VCC pins on the printed circuit board layout.
