In the

, the introduction text says:

The devices require only four small 0.1 mF standard external capacitors for operation from a 3 V supply.

However, Table 9 states the capacitance value as 0.1uF, a value 1000 smaller than 0.1mF.  Please could you confirm which of these is correct (I assume 0.1uF) and update the datasheet so the values agree?

    It is surely 100nF. I've used it a number of times and worked well.
