The maximum frequency of operation for the CD74HC157M is 25 MHz.
Yes, the CD74HC157M can operate with a power supply voltage range of 2V to 6V, including 5V.
To minimize power consumption, ensure that the VCC pin is connected to a stable power supply, and the GND pin is connected to a solid ground. Also, ensure that all input pins are at a valid logic level (either VCC or GND) to prevent unnecessary power consumption.
The CD74HC157M can sink or source up to 25mA of current per output pin.
The CD74HC157M is rated for operation from -40°C to 85°C. However, it's recommended to derate the device's performance at higher temperatures to ensure reliable operation.
