Abstract :
This paper´s goal is to help designers go through a step-by-step process to design the decoupling strategy for the charge supply. The distance to the decoupling capacitors, the number of decoupling capacitors, and the inductance associated with the connection of the decoupling capacitor to the power and ground-reference planes will all influence how much charge is delivered.
