capacitor also forms part of
the anti-aliasing filter, which
is recommended to prevent
high frequency noise from

layout of the PC board should
minimize any stray coupling
by maintaining the maximum
possible distance between the
input and output sides of the
circuit and ensuring that any
ground or power plane on the
PC board does not pass
PC Board Layout
The design of the printed
circuit board (PCB) should
follow good layout practices,
such as keeping bypass
capacitors close to the supply
pins, keeping output signals
away from input signals, the
use of ground and power
planes, etc. In addition, the
layout of the PCB can also
directly below or extend much
wider than the body of the
HCPL-7510.
