7.3 Feature Description

Inputs can be driven from either 3.3-V or 5-V devices. This feature allows the use of these devices as translators in a mixed 3.3-V and 5-V system environment. Device features a maximum tpd of 4.6 ns allowing the device to be used in high-speed applications as well.

To ensure the high-impedance state during power up or power down, OE must be tied to VCC through a pullup resistor; the minimum value of the resistor is determined by the current-sinking capability of the driver.
