select capacitors with a Class I dielectric. C0G (also
known as NP0), for example, has a tight tolerance
less than ±30ppm/°C and is very stable over time.
Should Class II capacitors be chosen because of the
size constraints, select an X7R or X5R dielectric to
minimize the variations of the capacitor’s critical
characteristics.
The resistors used in the circuits to drive the input
and reference should be kept as low as possible to
prevent excess thermal noise from degrading the
system performance.
The digital outputs from the device should always be
buffered. This has a number of benefits: it reduces
