Part Number: ADS7861

Hi,
Can you tell the max output driver strength for the digital outputs of ADS7861E?
Customer just found this indication:


Thanks & BR,

    HI KK,

    Unfortunately, the ADS7861 datasheet only guarantees the VOH and VOL threshold levels while sourcing a maximum of 500uA of current; and we can not guarantee the thresholds at larger current loads.  These are standard CMOS SPI serial interface outputs intended to drive inputs of microcontrollers.  If the user requires to source more current, a digital bus buffer driver may be required.

    Thank you,

    Best Regards,

    Luis
