App note: Transmission-line effects influence high-speed CMOS

Old app note from ONSEMI but still a good reference when designing with high speed CMOS devices. Link here (PDF)

Unlike low-power, metal-gate CMOS, high-speed 54HC/74HC devices readily drive long cable runs and backplanes. While the family maintains CMOS’s traditional noise immunity, you must watch transmission-line effects in such applications.
