Instructions for Use

1. Power Supply:

   • Ensure the supply voltage (V_CC) is within the specified range of 4.75V to 5.25V.
   • Connect the ground (GND) pin to a stable 0V reference.

2. Input Signals:

   • Apply input signals such that the high level (V_IH) is at least 2.0V and the low level (V_IL) is no more than 0.8V.
   • Avoid floating inputs; use pull-up or pull-down resistors if necessary.

3. Output Signals:

   • The output high level (V_OH) will be at least 2.4V when the output current (I_O) is -0.4mA.
   • The output low level (V_OL) will be no more than 0.5V when the output current (I_O) is 16mA.

4. Propagation Delay:

   • The typical propagation delay time (t_pd) is 30ns under standard conditions (V_CC = 5V, T_A = 25°C).

5. Thermal Management:

   • Ensure the device does not exceed the maximum power dissipation of 100mW to avoid overheating.
   • Operate the device within the commercial temperature range of 0°C to 70°C for reliable performance.

6. Storage:

   • Store the device in an environment with temperatures between -55°C and 150°C to prevent damage.

7. Handling:

   • Handle the device with care to avoid static discharge, which can damage the internal circuits.
   • Use appropriate ESD protection measures when handling the device.

8. Mounting:

   • Ensure proper soldering and mounting techniques to avoid mechanical stress on the pins and the device itself.
