Design Notes
Decouple the AVDD and VIO pins with 10uF and 0.1uF capacitors placed as close to the pins as possible. Use a low-impedance ground plane to minimize noise. The analog and digital supplies should be separated and connected at a single point to avoid digital switching noise coupling into the analog circuitry.
Place the reference decoupling capacitor (10uF) close to the REF pin. Route analog inputs away from digital traces to prevent crosstalk. Use a solid ground plane under the device and connect the exposed pad (EP) to ground with multiple vias for thermal and electrical performance.
Ensure the input voltage does not exceed the supply rails. For high-impedance sources, use the Easy Drive feature to minimize input current. Avoid floating unused analog inputs; tie them to ground or a reference voltage. The SPI interface should be operated within the specified clock frequency to ensure reliable communication.
