The maximum frequency of operation for the CD74HC4518E is 40 MHz, but it can vary depending on the specific application and operating conditions.
To ensure proper power sequencing, the VCC pin should be powered up before the input signals, and the input signals should be stable before the clock signal is applied.
The recommended operating voltage range for the CD74HC4518E is 2V to 6V, with a typical operating voltage of 5V.
Unused inputs on the CD74HC4518E should be tied to a logic high or low level to prevent floating inputs, which can cause unpredictable behavior.
The maximum output current of the CD74HC4518E is 25mA per output pin, but it's recommended to limit the output current to 10mA or less to ensure reliable operation.
