CD74HC4050ME4 Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the maximum operating frequency of the CD74HC4050ME4?
  The maximum operating frequency of the CD74HC4050ME4 is 10 MHz, but it can vary depending on the specific application and operating conditions.
• How do I handle the power-up and power-down sequencing of the CD74HC4050ME4?
  It is recommended to power up the VCC pin before the input signals and power down the VCC pin after the input signals to prevent unwanted output states.
• What is the recommended operating voltage range for the CD74HC4050ME4?
  The recommended operating voltage range for the CD74HC4050ME4 is 2V to 6V, but it can operate down to 1.5V with reduced performance.
• How do I ensure the CD74HC4050ME4 is properly terminated to prevent signal reflections?
  It is recommended to use a termination resistor at the output of the CD74HC4050ME4 to match the impedance of the transmission line and prevent signal reflections.
• What is the maximum output current of the CD74HC4050ME4?
  The maximum output current of the CD74HC4050ME4 is 25mA per output pin, but it is recommended to limit the output current to 10mA per pin to ensure reliable operation.
