Placement and Routing Considerations for General-purpose Analog Circuit Boards

A “general-purpose” analog circuit board is defined here as one that uses common analog circuitry (op amps, transistors, etc.) that operates at only a few megahertz (MHz) of bandwidth. This type of circuit is fairly forgiving of circuit board placement and routing oversights, but there are a few guidelines still to be followed. Proper ground and power distribution (as described in Chapter Two) is important, as are decoupling capacitors. Beyond that, you should not have many problems.
