Most ICs need to be decoupled from their power supply, usually with a 0.1uF capacitor between each power pin and ground. Decoupling is usually used to remove noise and to smooth power fluctuations.

You are designing your latest sub-system and somebody tells you to place as many 100 nF decoupling capacitors as you can, as close as physically possible to all the integrated circuits, just like we ...

Decoupling capacitors have long been an important aspect of maintaining a clean power source for integrated circuits, but with noise caused by rising clock frequencies, multiple power domains, and ...

Everyone knows that the perfect capacitor to decouple the power rails around ICs is a 100 nF ceramic capacitor or equivalent, yet where does this ‘fact’ come from and is it even correct? These are the ...

This white paper discusses a method for driving high-frequency sinusoidal ripple over capacitive loads for power supply rejection ratio (PSRR) testing, an important performance parameter for many ...

Teseq's CDN HSS-2 is compact, relatively lightweight and easy-to-use. It features selectable common mode coupling to 1, 2 or 4 pairs depending on the jumper settings on the CDN, and is coupled with 40 ...
