The TLV323x features a push-pull output stage capable of both sinking and sourcing current. This allows driving loads such as LED's and MOSFET gates, as well as eliminating the need for a power-wasting external pull-up resistor. The push-pull output must never be connected to another output.

Directly shorting the output to the supply rails ((V+) when output "low" or (V-) when output "High") can result in thermal runaway and eventual device destruction. If output shorts are possible, a series current limiting resistor is recommended to limit the power dissipation.

Unused push-pull outputs must be left floating, and never tied to a supply, ground, or another output.
