The maximum clock frequency of the SN7497N3 is 10 MHz, but it can operate at higher frequencies with reduced voltage and load capacitance.
To ensure reliable operation in high-temperature environments, it's essential to follow proper thermal management practices, such as providing adequate heat sinking, using a thermally conductive package, and keeping the junction temperature below 150°C.
The recommended power-on sequence for the SN7497N3 is to apply VCC before applying any input signals, and to ensure that the input signals are stable before applying the clock signal.
To handle metastability issues in the SN7497N3, it's recommended to use synchronous design techniques, such as using a single clock domain, and to ensure that the clock signal is clean and jitter-free.
The maximum input voltage that the SN7497N3 can tolerate is 5.5V, and exceeding this voltage can cause permanent damage to the device.
