2 What Decoupling Capacitor Value To Use And Where To Place Them | Eric Bogatin
An explanation of decoupling capacitors and why fast switching edges cause supply voltage dips, recommended as clearer than most on the subject.
3 The most misunderstood concept in decoupling
Cited in PCB layout debates as the case against mixing decoupling capacitor values, arguing parasitics make a spread of values noisier than a single one.
