possible for best results.

11 Layout

11.1 Layout Guidelines

When using multiple-bit logic devices, inputs should never float.

In many cases, functions or parts of functions of digital logic devices are unused, for example, when only two

inputs of a triple-input AND gate are used or only 3 of the 4 buffer gates are used. Such input pins should not be

left unconnected because the undefined voltages at the outside connections result in undefined operational

states. Figure 6 specifies the rules that must be observed under all circumstances. All unused inputs of digital

logic devices must be connected to a high or low bias to prevent them from floating. The logic level that should

be applied to any particular unused input depends on the function of the device. Generally they will be tied to

unless the part is a transceiver. If the transceiver has an output enable pin, it will disable the output section of the

part when asserted. This will not disable the input section of the IOs, so they cannot float when disabled.
