Port Placement

Power ports should always face up (like the letter T), and ground ports should always face down.

Decoupling

IC decoupling shall be achieved by a minimum of one 0.1uF MLCC capacitor per power pin. Additional decoupling shall be added if warranted by the application, such as in high power devices. The datasheet will generally have recommended decoupling schemes. It is acceptable to round decoupling cap values to nicer numbers, ie 0.47uF to 1uF. Be weary of excessive capacitance resulting in inrush current.
