Teach me your solution in terms I

understand.
Hi Geoff,
The amount of protection needed to prevent th=
e=20
current drawn by one IC from effecting another depends on what they are do=
ing=20
and on the properties of the circuit. A capacitor also has some internal=
=20
resistance and some inductance. Some ICs sink supply currents of over =
;an=20
amp when switching. This can effect the voltage supplies to other cir=
cuits=20
due to the resistance of the circuit board wiring and the bypass capacity=
to=20
earth. It can effect the signal and the offset of an opamp - check th=
e=20
frequency plot of the power supply rejection ratio on the data sheet.=

Ceramic capacitors and tantalum electrolytics have low internal resis=
tances=20
and can supply large current pulses. Aluminium electrolytics and film=20
capacitors tend to have significant internal resistances.
It may be practical to insert small resistanc=
es in=20
series with the IC supply rails and the bypass capacitors of the swit=
ching=20
circuit. You can also add bypass wires in parallel with the supply rail tr=
acks.=20
This can also be done for the input opamp of your amplifier.
