SUMMARY OF PRECAUTIONS
(2) Avoiding effects of rapidly level-changing signal lines
Locate signal lines whose levels change rapidly as far away from the oscillator as possible. Also, make sure
the rapidly level-changing signal lines will not intersect the clock-related signal lines and other noise-sensi-
tive signal lines.
<Reasons>
Rapidly level-changing signal lines tend to affect other signal lines as their voltage level frequently rises and
falls. Especially if these signal lines intersect the clock-related signal lines, they will cause the clock waveform
to become distorted, which may result in the microcomputer operating erratically or getting out of control.
