To help ensure reliable operation at data rates and supply voltages, a 0.1-µF bypass capacitor is recommended at the input and output supply pins (V_CC1 and V_CC2). The capacitors should be placed as close to the supply pins as possible. If only a single primary-side power supply is available in an application, isolated power can be generated for the secondary-side with the help of a transformer driver such as Texas Instruments' SN6501-Q1. For such applications, detailed power supply design and transformer selection recommendations are available in the SN6501-Q1 datasheet (SLLSEF3) .
