SN74CBTLV3257: OE tied low okay?

Part Number: SN74CBTLV3257
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TMUX1574

Hi Team,

Customer has used our SN74CBTLV3257 in designs and they are wondering how vital is it to have the /OE pin tied to VCC.

As mentioned in the datasheet, we recommend the /OE to be tied to VCC to ensure a high-impedance state on power up and down.

They are stating that they have to tie it LOW due to their architecture.

Is this okay that /OE is tied low?

Thanks!
