27.4 Maximum Speed vs. V
CC
Maximum frequency is depending on V
CC
. As shown in Figure 27-2., the Maximum Frequency
vs. V
CC
curve is linear between 1.8V < V
CC
< 4.5V. To calculate the maximum frequency at a
given voltage in this interval, use this equation:
To calculate required voltage for a given frequency, use this equation:
At 3 Volt, this gives:
Thus, when V
CC
= 3V, maximum frequency will be 9.33 MHz.
At 8 MHz this gives:
Thus, a maximum frequency of 8 MHz requires V
CC
= 2.7V.
