Instructions for Use:

1. Supply Voltage (V_DD):

   • Ensure the supply voltage is within the range of 3V to 18V.
   • Avoid exceeding the maximum voltage to prevent damage to the device.

2. Input Voltages:

   • For proper operation, input low voltages should be below 5V when V_DD is 5V.
   • Input high voltages should be above 5V when V_DD is 18V.

3. Output Voltages:

   • When the output is low, ensure the voltage does not exceed 0.4V at 4mA load current.
   • When the output is high, ensure the voltage is at least 4.5V at -0.4mA load current.

4. Current Ratings:

   • The input current should be kept between -1μA and 1μA.
   • The output can sink up to 4mA and source up to 0.4mA.

5. Propagation Delay:

   • The typical propagation delay time is 12ns at 5V supply voltage and 25°C ambient temperature.

6. Power Dissipation:

   • The device should not dissipate more than 100mW to avoid overheating.

7. Temperature Ranges:

   • The operating temperature range is from -40°C to 85°C.
   • The storage temperature range is from -65°C to 150°C.

8. Handling:

   • Handle the device with care to avoid static damage.
   • Follow standard ESD (Electrostatic Discharge) precautions during handling and installation.

9. Mounting:

   • Ensure proper mounting and soldering to avoid mechanical stress on the package.
   • Use appropriate heat sinks if necessary to manage power dissipation.

10. Testing:

    • Test the device under specified conditions to ensure it meets the performance parameters.
    • Use recommended test circuits and procedures for accurate results.
