First question asked
To consider EMI noise of LITIX Basic+, is it ok to put one output capacitor to GND?
And how much capacitor should be selected in this case?

General recommendation is to place a capacitor on each OUTx-pin to GND.
A suitable ceramic capacitor of 4.7nF or 10nF should be placed close to the OUTx-pin.
