To our customers,
Old Company Name in Catalogs and Other Documents
On April 1st, 2010, NEC Electronics Corporation merged with Renesas Technology
Corporation, and Renesas Electronics Corporation took over all the business of both
companies. Therefore, although the old company name remains in this document, it is a valid
Renesas Electronics document. We appreciate your understanding.

CAPACITORS FOR THE VCC, INPUT AND OUTPUT PINS
Capacitors of 1 000 pF are recommendable as the bypass capacitor for the VCC pin and the coupling capacitors for
the input and output pins.
The bypass capacitor connected to the VCC pin is used to minimize ground impedance of VCC pin. So, stable bias
can be supplied against VCC fluctuation.
The coupling capacitors, connected to the input and output pins, are used to cut the DC and minimize RF serial
impedance. Their capacitances are therefore selected as lower impedance against a 50 Ω load. The capacitors thus
perform as high pass filters, suppressing low frequencies to DC.

NOTES ON CORRECT USE
(1) Observe precautions for handling because of electro-static sensitive devices.
(2) Form a ground pattern as widely as possible to minimize ground impedance (to prevent undesired oscillation).
All the ground terminals must be connected together with wide ground pattern to decrease impedance difference.
(3) The bypass capacitor should be attached to the VCC line.
(4) The DC cut capacitor must be attached to input and output pin.

each NEC Electronics product before using it in a particular application.
"Standard": Computers, office equipment, communications equipment, test and measurement equipment, audio
and visual equipment, home electronic appliances, machine tools, personal electronic equipment
and industrial robots.
"Special": Transportation equipment (automobiles, trains, ships, etc.), traffic control systems, anti-disaster
systems, anti-crime systems, safety equipment and medical equipment (not specifically designed
for life support).
"Specific": Aircraft, aerospace equipment, submersible repeaters, nuclear reactor control systems, life
support systems and medical equipment for life support, etc.
The quality grade of NEC Electronics products is "Standard" unless otherwise expressly specified in NEC
Electronics data sheets or data books, etc. If customers wish to use NEC Electronics products in applications
not intended by NEC Electronics, they must contact an NEC Electronics sales representative in advance to
determine NEC Electronics' willingness to support a given application.
(Note)
(1) "NEC Electronics" as used in this statement means NEC Electronics Corporation and also includes its
majority-owned subsidiaries.
(2) "NEC Electronics products" means any product developed or manufactured by or for NEC Electronics (as
defined above).
