Other Parts Discussed in Thread: MSP430G2001
We are using SN74LVC2G14 in a fault handling circuit.
And we use a separate low power, 5V power supply circuit for that.
One of the two schmitt triggers is used to generate a clock pulse with approximately 10KHz frequency,
we are doing that with a 100K feedback resistor and a 2n2 capacitor, to GND.
Now the point:
The current consumption of this small circuit is approximately 15mA, and we have tried to build the circuit as a mug-up,
with short wires and ceramic 100n decoupling of vcc, and the input of the other schmitt triger connected to GND.
According to the data sheet the current consumption should be around 1mA
