Until now, I have never seen the tip Jung provides to stabilize an SSM2142. This is not in the datasheet.
SSM2142 with capacitive pre-loading, Jung, Op Amp Applications.
Note the addition of C1 and C2 which are 68 pF from each output to ground.
What I saw driving long lines that were shorted on the far end was an inductive rise in frequency response at the shorted output.
I suspected that this may have been what caused oscillation that some people have reported with the SSM2142 and DRV134 cross-coupled outputs.
Pre-loading capacitors from each output to ground appear to reduce that rise. To my knowledge this is the only place I've seen this published.
