For best operational performance of the device, use good printed circuit board (PCB) layout practices, including the following guidelines:

• Noise can propagate into analog circuitry through the power pins of the op amp and the circuit as a whole. Connect low-ESR, 0.1µF ceramic bypass capacitors between each supply pin and ground. Place the capacitors as close to the device as possible. A single bypass capacitor from V+ to ground is sufficient for single supply applications.
• Separate grounding for analog and digital portions of circuitry is one of the simplest and most effective methods of noise suppression. One or more layers on multilayer PCBs are typically devoted to ground planes. A ground plane helps distribute heat and reduces EMI noise pickup. Physically separate digital and analog grounds paying attention to the flow of the ground current.
• To reduce parasitic coupling, run the input traces as far away from the supply or output traces as possible. If these traces cannot be kept separate, crossing the sensitive trace perpendicular is much better as opposed to in parallel with the noisy trace.
• Place the external components as close to the device as possible.
• Keep the length of input traces as short as possible. Always remember that the input traces are the most sensitive part of the circuit.
• Consider a driven, low-impedance guard ring around the critical traces. A guard ring can significantly reduce leakage currents from nearby traces that are at different potentials.
• Clean the PCB following board assembly for best performance.
• Any precision integrated circuit can experience performance shifts due to moisture ingress into the plastic package. Following any aqueous PCB cleaning process, bake the PCB assembly to remove moisture introduced into the device packaging during the cleaning process. A low temperature, post cleaning bake at 85°C for 30 minutes is sufficient for most circumstances.
