10 Layout
10.1 Layout Guidelines
The VM and VCC terminals should be bypassed to GND using low-ESR ceramic bypass capacitors with a
recommended value of 0.1 µF rated for VM and VCC. These capacitors should be placed as close to the VM and
VCC pins as possible with a thick trace or ground plane connection to the device GND pin.
