| Aug 30, 2012 at 18:56 | comment | added | Sparr | @stevenvh Sure, but plenty of 5V devices list 4.5-6V as the allowable range, and plenty of 6V devices allow 5-7.5V, so 5.5V makes everyone happy even with 10% tolerance. | |
| Aug 30, 2012 at 18:47 | comment | added | stevenvh | If a logic IC's datasheet mentions 5.5 V as maximum for Recommended Operation Conditions, that's already 10 % margin included on a nominal 5.0 V. If you operate at 5.5 V and have a 10 % tolerance on that you may meet/exceed Absolute Maximum Ratings. | |
