11.1.6 Additional Suggestions

Make sure that traces route directly through the pads of all filter capacitors and not by a stub route. The following figure shows the correct way to route through a capacitor pad.
Figure 11-3. Correct Routing Through Capacitor Pad

The following figure shows a stub route to the capacitor pad. This should be avoided as it adds additional impedance in series with the capacitor.
