11.1 Layout Guidelines
The VMA and VMB terminals should be bypassed to GND using low-ESR ceramic bypass capacitors with a
recommended value of 0.01 µF rated for VM. This capacitor should be placed as close to the VMA and VMB pins
as possible with a thick trace or ground plane connection to the device GND pin.
The VMA and VMB pins must be bypassed to ground using a bulk capacitor. This component may be an
electrolytic. If VMA and VMB are connected to the same board net, a single bulk capacitor is sufficient.
A low-ESR ceramic capacitor must be placed in between the CPL and CPH pins. A value of 0.01 µF rated for
VMA and VMB is recommended. Place this component as close to the pins as possible.
A low-ESR ceramic capacitor must be placed in between the VMA and VCP pins. A value of 0.1 µF rated for 16
V is recommended. Place this component as close to the pins as possible. In addition place a 1-MΩ resistor
between VCP and VMA.
Bypass V3P3 to ground with a ceramic capacitor rated 6.3 V. Place this bypassing capacitor as close to the pin
as possible.
