Output Disable T ime
Output pins are considered to be disabled when they have
stopped driving and started a transition from the measured out-
put high or low voltage to a high impedance state. T he output
disable time (t
DIS
) is the difference of t
MEASURED
and t
DECAY
, as
shown in the Output Enable/Disable diagram. T he time is the
interval from when a reference signal reaches a high or low volt-
age level to when the output voltages have changed by 0.5 V
from the measured output high or low voltage. T he decay time,
t
DECAY
, is dependent on the capacitative load, C
L
, and the cur-
rent load,
i
L
, on the output pin. It can be approximated by the
following equation:

abled, the measurement value is that of the last pin to stop
driving.

Output E nable T ime
Output pins are considered to be enabled when that have made
a transition from a high-impedance state to when they start driv-
ing. T he output enable time (t
ENA
) is the interval from when a
reference signal reaches a high or low voltage level to when the
output has reached a specified high or low trip point, as shown
in the Output Enable/Disable diagram. If multiple pins (such as
the data bus) are enabled, the measurement value is that of the
first pin to start driving.
