possible into and out of the operational amplifier
circuit.
2. The feedback path should be short and direct
avoiding vias.
3. Ground or power planes should be removed from
directly under the amplifier ’ s input and output
pins.
4. An output resistor is recommended on each
output, as near to the output pin as possible.
5. Two 10- µ F and two 0.1- µ F power-supply
decoupling capacitors should be placed as near
to the power-supply pins as possible.
6. Two 0.1- µ F capacitors should be placed between
the CM input pins and ground. This limits noise
coupled into the pins. One each should be placed
to ground near pin 4 and pin 9.
7. It is recommended to split the ground pane on
layer 2 (L2) as shown below and to use a solid
ground on layer 3 (L3). A single-point connection
