Can any of you do that for me ??
Teach me your solution in terms I
can understand.
Hi Geoff,
The amount of protection needed to prevent the current drawn by one IC
from effecting another depends on what they are doing and on the
properties of the circuit. A capacitor also has some internal resistance and some
inductance. Some ICs sink supply currents of over an amp when switching. This
can effect the voltage supplies to other circuits due to the resistance of
the circuit board wiring and the bypass capacity to earth. It can effect
the signal and the offset of an opamp - check the frequency plot of the
power supply rejection ratio on the data sheet. Ceramic capacitors and tantalum
electrolytics have low internal resistances and can supply large current
pulses. Aluminium electrolytics and film capacitors tend to have significant
internal resistances.
It may be practical to insert small resistances in series with the IC
supply rails and the bypass capacitors of the switching circuit. You can
also add bypass wires in parallel with the supply rail tracks. This can also
be done for the input opamp of your amplifier.

Chris Chapman
