8.2.1 Design Requirements

It is best to set VCC for the SN74AHC125 to the same level as the microcontroller logic levels. This allows for optimal performance. The SN74AHC125 can safely handle input levels from –0.5 V to 7 V. However, if the logic levels that are being received vary from the VCC level of the device then errors can occur. For example, if VCC is 5.5 V then the minimum high-level input voltage (VIH) level is 3.85 V. This means if the microcontroller is sending a HIGH signal, but HIGH = 3.3 V, it would be too low a level for the SNx4AHC125 to register it as what it must be. In this case VCC would need to be lowered in order to lower the VIH minimum. The opposite is also true for low-level input voltage (VIL). If VCC is set to 2 V, then VIL maximum is 0.5 V. Depending on the microcontroller logic levels, a LOW signal may not go low enough for the SNx4AHC125 to register it.
