Board Layout and Bypassing
and AV should be bypassed to the ground plane as
DD
close to the pin as possible. Maintaining a low impedance
path for the common return of these bypass capacitors
is essential to the low noise operation of the ADC. These
traces should be as wide as possible. See Figure 16 for a
suggested layout.

a solid ground plane is required. Layout for the printed
board should ensure digital and analog signal lines are
separated as much as possible. Care should be taken not
to run any digital signals alongside an analog signal. All
