Hi
In the datasheet of a high speed comparator (LT1719, 2.5 ns rise time) I see recommendation for 1206 10nF ceramic cap for bypass.
My question is why 1206? for example 0603 takes less space and has a lot less parasitic inductance. But I recall seeing recommendation for 1206 ceramic bypass caps for other parts as well. Why is that?
Thanks
