The AUP family is TI’s premier solution to the industry’s low power needs in
battery-powered portable applications. This family assures a very low static and dynamic power
consumption across the entire VCC range of 0.8 V to 3.6 V, resulting in an
increased battery life. This product also maintains excellent signal integrity (see
AUP – The Lowest-Power Family and
Excellent Signal Integrity).This device functions as an independent gate with Schmitt-trigger inputs, which allows
for slow input transition and better switching-noise immunity at the input. This device is fully specified for partial-power-down applications using
Ioff. The Ioff circuitry disables the outputs when
the device is powered down. This inhibits current backflow into the device which prevents damage to
the device.
