A 0.1µF capacitor gives good results in most applications.
However, where a large common mode voltage exists (i.e., CD4009
the REF LO pin is not at analog COMMON) and a 200mV
scale is used, a larger value is required to prevent roll-over V+
error. Generally 1µF will hold the roll-over error to 0.5 count OSC 1
