Hi,
Take for example the very common series of Hex Inverters by Texas Instruments CD4069U, SN74LS04, and Fairchilds own MM74HC04.
Why is it that on some data sheets manufacturers such as TI refer to particular attributes such as propagtion Delay, transistion Times & Capacitance as either, Dynamic Electrical Characteristics and Switching Characteristics respectively whereas Faichild refer to it as AC Electrical Characteristics. How can that be? After all they are operating under DC test conditions (there is no changing of polarity occuring here).
AC - why is this and why don't they stick to a convention according to IEEE standard?
Thanks
