The data sheet provides timing test results at the device pin. For output timing analysis, the tester pin electronics and its transmission line effects must be considered. Test Load Circuit for Output Propagation Measurement shows an equivalent test load circuit for the output under test. Timing reference loads are not intended as a precise representation of any particular system environment or depiction of the actual load presented by a production test. TI recommends that system designers use IBIS or other simulation tools to correlate the timing reference load to a system environment. The load capacitance value stated is intended for characterization and measurement of AC timing signals only. This load capacitance value does not indicate the maximum load the device is capable of driving.
