10 Application and Implementation

10.1 Application Information

The SNx4AHC273 is a low-drive CMOS device that can be used for a multitude of applications where output ringing is a concern. The low drive and slow edge rates will minimize overshoot and undershoot on the outputs. The inputs are tolerant to 5.5 V at any valid VCC. This feature makes the device ideal for translating down to the VCC level. Figure 5 shows the reduction in ringing compared to higher drive parts such as AC.

10.2 Typical Application

10.2.1 Design Requirements

This device uses CMOS technology and has balanced output drive. Care should be taken to avoid bus contention because it can drive currents that would exceed maximum limits. The high drive will also create fast edges into light loads, so routing and load conditions should be considered to prevent ringing.

10.2.2 Detailed Design Procedure

  1. Recommended input conditions
  2. Recommend output conditions
    • Load currents should not exceed 25 mA per output and 75 mA total for the part
    • Outputs should not be pulled above VCC
