- Hullo--
-
- A practical circuit question: I've got a circuit that looks vaguely like
- the following, and I wonder whether I need some additional decoupling on the
- power supply line.

- ------ ----------- -------
-
- My TTL components have .001 uF filter caps for high-frequencies, and
- every-other one has a .1 uF cap for decoupling. What I'm wondering is whether
- I need to compensate for the 400 mA current pulses, and if so, how? If I hang
- a gi-hugeous electrolytic on my TTL board, what do I do about current inrush?
-
- I've not yet built this thing, so I don't have anything empirical to go by.
- Manufacturing concerns dictate that any decoupling be done on the TTL board.
-
- Many thanks!
