CD74ACT257M96 Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the recommended operating voltage range for the CD74ACT257M96?
  The recommended operating voltage range for the CD74ACT257M96 is 4.5V to 5.5V, although it can operate from 2V to 6V with reduced performance.
• How do I handle the unused inputs on the CD74ACT257M96?
  Unused inputs on the CD74ACT257M96 should be tied to a logic high or low level to prevent them from floating, which can cause unpredictable behavior.
• What is the maximum frequency of operation for the CD74ACT257M96?
  The maximum frequency of operation for the CD74ACT257M96 is typically around 100MHz, although this can vary depending on the specific application and operating conditions.
• How do I ensure signal integrity when using the CD74ACT257M96 in a high-speed application?
  To ensure signal integrity when using the CD74ACT257M96 in a high-speed application, use proper PCB layout techniques, such as minimizing trace lengths, using impedance-matched transmission lines, and adding termination resistors as needed.
• Is the CD74ACT257M96 compatible with 3.3V logic?
  Yes, the CD74ACT257M96 is compatible with 3.3V logic, although the output voltage levels may not be fully compatible with 3.3V logic levels. A voltage translator or level shifter may be required in some cases.
