If you are just goofing around, or designing something with no clocks (combinatorial logic only) it will probably work. But I agree with Janka. | |
| Oct 13, 2017 at 4:36 | comment | added | Janka | The CD4000 series functions from at least 2.5V to roughly 18V in reality. 3V-18V is the range in which the datasheet's parameters are tested. So you can go lower than 3V but please don't sell this product to anyone. | |
