Instructions for Use:

1. Power Supply:

   • Ensure the supply voltage (V_DD) is within the range of 3V to 15V.
   • Connect the ground (GND) pin to the common ground of your circuit.

2. Input Signals:

   • For a logic low, the input voltage (V_IL) should be less than 1.5V when V_DD is 5V.
   • For a logic high, the input voltage (V_IH) should be greater than 3.5V when V_DD is 5V.
   • Ensure that the input leakage current (I_IL) does not exceed ±1μA.

3. Output Signals:

   • The output low voltage (V_OL) should be less than 0.25V when V_DD is 5V and the output low current (I_OL) is 0.4mA.
   • The output high voltage (V_OH) should be greater than 3.75V when V_DD is 5V and the output high current (I_OH) is -0.4mA.
   • The maximum output current (I_OL, I_OH) should not exceed ±10mA.

4. Propagation Delay:

   • The propagation delay time (t_pd) is typically 120ns at V_DD = 5V and f_o = 10kHz.

5. Power Dissipation:

   • The maximum power dissipation (P_D) should not exceed 100mW.

6. Handling:

   • Handle the HEF4040BP with care to avoid static damage.
   • Store in a dry, cool place to prevent moisture damage.

7. Circuit Design:

   • Use appropriate decoupling capacitors (e.g., 0.1μF ceramic capacitors) between V_DD and GND close to the device to minimize noise and ensure stable operation.
   • Ensure proper PCB layout to minimize signal interference and improve performance.

8. Testing:

   • Test the device under specified conditions to verify its functionality.
   • Use a multimeter to check the supply voltage and output voltages.

By following these instructions, you can ensure reliable and efficient operation of the HEF4040BP.
