Maximum input signal switching frequency by number of input
channels, per channel

8 input channels.......................... 9 MHz
4 input channels.......................... 16 MHz
2 input channels.......................... 30 MHz

Maximum output signal switching frequency by number of output
channels with an output load of 1 mA, 50 pF, per channel

8 output channels........................ 5 MHz
4 output channels........................ 10 MHz
2 output channels........................ 20 MHz

I/O propagation delay ....................... 100 ns max

I/O pulse width distortion ................. 10 ns typ
