To avoid crosstalk on the digital inputs when probing signals with very fast edges, always take
extra care to:
• Keep leads carrying fast signals separate from other input leads.
• Keep leads carrying fast signals as close as possible to the ground leads.
• Connect all four black ground leads to the ground of the circuit under test.
