<
electronics> A technique for reducing the amount of
Radio Frequency Interference spread via power supply connections.
VCC is a common name for the non-
ground power supply line in circuits based on
bipolar transistors.
When part of a circuit generates lots of radio-frequency noise, that portion of the
power plane can be isolated from the rest of the circuit and power delivered to it via a
low pass filter, usually a
PI filter, as shown in the diagram below.
source ________inductor_________ load | | capacitor capacitor | | ground ground
This helps to shield the rest of the circuit from the noise generated by the load.
