Add a decoupling capacitor from VCC to GND. The capacitor needs to be placed physically close to the device and electrically close to both the VCC and GND pins. An example layout is shown in the Section 8.4.
Ensure the capacitive load at the output is ≤
70pF. This is not a hard limit; however, it will optimize performance. This can
be accomplished by providing short, appropriately sized traces from the SN74LVC7266A to the receiving device.
Ensure the resistive load at the output is larger
than (VCC / IO(max)) Ω. This will not violate the maximum
output current from the Absolute Maximum Ratings. Most CMOS inputs have a resistive
load measured in megaohms; much larger than the minimum calculated above.
Thermal issues are rarely a concern for logic gates, however the power consumption and thermal increase can be calculated using the steps provided in the application report, CMOS Power Consumption and Cpd Calculation
