For larger pin count package types, there are several VDD and corresponding
GND pins. All the VDD pins in the microcontroller are internally connected. The same
voltage must be applied to each of the VDD pins.
The following figure shows the recommendation for connecting a power supply
to the VDD pin(s) of the device.
Figure 1. Recommended VDD Connection Circuit
Schematic
Important: For systems that frequently
cycle VDD or experience fast VDD transients, it is recommended to
add an additional decoupling capacitor (C3) if the power supply slew rate exceeds the
slew rate limits. Refer to the Supply Voltage section in the Electrical
Characteristics for details about power supply slew rate limits.
