2. Connection of bypass capacitor across VSS line
and VCC line
Connect an approximately 0.1
F bypass capacitor across the
VSS line and the VCC line as follows:
Connect a bypass capacitor across the VSS pin and the VCC
pin at equal length.
Connect a bypass capacitor across the VSS pin and the VCC
pin with the shortest possible wiring.
Use lines with a larger diameter than other signal lines for
VSS line and VCC line.
Connect the power source wiring via a bypass capacitor to
the VSS pin and the VCC pin.

3. Wiring to analog input pins
The analog input pin is connected to the capacitor of a voltage
comparator. Accordingly, sufficient accuracy may not be
obtained by the charge/discharge current at the time of A/D
conversion when the analog signal source of high-impedance is
connected to an analog input pin. In order to obtain the A/D
conversion result stabilized more, please lower the impedance of
an analog signal source, or add the smoothing capacitor to an
analog input pin.
4. Oscillator concerns
Take care to prevent an oscillator that generates clocks for a mi-
crocomputer operation from being affected by other signals.
(1) Keeping oscillator away from large current signal lines
Install a microcomputer (and especially an oscillator) as far as
possible from signal lines where a current larger than the toler-
ance of current value flows.
<Reason>
In the system using a microcomputer, there are signal lines for
controlling motors, LEDs, and thermal heads or others. When a
large current flows through those signal lines, strong noise
occurs because of mutual inductance.
(2) Installing oscillator away from signal lines where potential
levels change frequently
Install an oscillator and a connecting pattern of an oscillator
away from signal lines where potential levels change frequently.
Also, do not cross such signal lines over the clock lines or the
signal lines which are sensitive to noise.
<Reason>
Signal lines where potential levels change frequently (such as the
CNTR pin signal line) may affect other lines at signal rising edge
or falling edge. If such lines cross over a clock line, clock wave-
forms may be deformed, which causes a microcomputer failure
or a program runaway.

lines where potential levels change frequently
(3) Oscillator protection using VSS pattern
As for a two-sided printed circuit board, print a VSS pattern on
the underside (soldering side) of the position (on the component
side) where an oscillator is mounted.
Connect the VSS pattern to the microcomputer VSS pin with the
shortest possible wiring. Besides, separate this VSS pattern from
other VSS patterns.
