The maximum operating frequency of the SN74AHC157DBR is 100 MHz, but it can vary depending on the specific application and operating conditions.
To ensure signal integrity, use proper PCB layout techniques, such as keeping signal traces short and away from noise sources, using impedance-matched transmission lines, and adding termination resistors as needed.
Yes, the SN74AHC157DBR is compatible with 5V systems, but it's recommended to use a voltage regulator to ensure a stable 3.3V supply to the device.
The power consumption of the SN74AHC157DBR depends on the operating frequency and input signals. Typically, it consumes around 10-20 mA at 3.3V and 100 MHz.
To handle thermal issues, ensure good airflow around the device, use a heat sink if necessary, and avoid operating the device at maximum power dissipation for extended periods.
