SN74LV123A: pin#15 (1Rext/Cext) termination when channel 1 is not used

Part Number: SN74LV123A
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: SN74LVC1G123

Hello,

 

My customer uses only channel 2 of SN74LV123A.

Can they leave pin#15 (1Rext/Cext) unconnected?

 

Best regards,

  • The Rext/Cext pin is an analog I/O that goes to the internal comparator:

    It is probably not a good idea to let it float. You can pretend that Rext and Cext are infinitely large, i.e., connect the Rext/Cext pin directly to Cext.

    Consider using the single-channel SN74LVC1G123 instead.
