PRODUCTION DATA
Although quiescent VDD current is very low, total supply current is higher, depending on OUTA and OUTB current and the programmed oscillator frequency. Total VDD current is the sum of quiescent VDD current and the average OUT current. Knowing the operating frequency and the MOSFET gate charge (Qg), average OUT current can be calculated from Equation 1.

For the best high-speed circuit performance, TI recommends two VDD bypass capacitors to prevent noise problems. TI highly recommends using surface-mount components. A 0.1-µF ceramic capacitor must be located closest to the VDD to ground connection. In addition, a larger capacitor (such as 1 µF) with relatively low ESR must be connected in parallel, to help deliver the high current peaks to the load. The parallel combination of capacitors must present a low impedance characteristic for the expected current levels in the driver application.
