These capacitors should have a value of 0.01 or 0.1 µF. Only ceramic SMT (surface mount technology)
capacitors should be used to minimize lead inductance, preferably 0402 or 0603 sizes.
In addition, it is recommended that there be several bulk storage capacitors distributed around the PCB,
feeding the VDD, OVDD, GVDD, and LVDD planes, to enable quick recharging of the smaller chip
capacitors. These bulk capacitors should have a low ESR (equivalent series resistance) rating to ensure the
quick response time necessary. They should also be connected to the power and ground planes through two
vias to minimize inductance. Suggested bulk capacitors—100–330 µF (AVX TPS tantalum or Sanyo
OSCON).

To ensure reliable operation, it is highly recommended that unused inputs be connected to an appropriate
signal level. Unused active low inputs should be tied to OVDD, GVDD, or LVDD as required. Unused
active high inputs should be connected to GND. All NC (no-connect) signals must remain unconnected.
Power and ground connections must be made to all external VDD, GVDD, LVDD, OVDD, and GND pins
of the device.

The device drivers are characterized over process, voltage, and temperature. For all buses, the driver is a
push-pull single-ended driver type (open drain for I
