A low ESL ceramic capacitor is located close to LTM2881s signal and power isolating elements. the module minimizing high frequency noise conduction. 2. Discrete bridge capacitors (C3, C4) mounted between High ESR tantalum capacitors are included to minimize GND2 and GND. The discrete capacitors provide ad- board resonances and prevent voltage spikes due to hot ditional attenuation at frequencies below 400MHz. plugging of the input supply voltage.
