Comment on Digital buffer works for a bit, then stops, turning it off for an hour resets it to working again
avidamoeba@lemmy.ca 2 days agoAs an idiot, do I wire capacitors in parallel to Vcc and GND of the buffer? What value?
Also I have the same kind of buffer from TI. Is there any sense to change the IC and see if the TI fares better?

Yes, sounds about right. For general purpose decoupling that is a good value. Make sure to place it as close to the IC as possible. A longer path will add more “noise” to the system. Do read more about the capacitor type too since it can matter a lot. I suggest looking at Phil’s Lab video on YouTube to learn more about this stuff
