Inverter Gates FAQ

How should unused inputs be handled?

Unused inputs must not be left floating. They should be terminated to either VCC or ground using pull-up or pull-down resistors to prevent undefined operational states.

What are the input signal requirements?

Inputs require fast edge rates as defined in the Recommended Operating Conditions. Slow input edge rates can cause oscillations and damaging shoot-through current.
