Grounding all unused chip pins
Is that what I should do with my cmos chips?
I'm using a cmos 4066 quad bilateral switch.
I'm only using a few of the internal switches.
What do I do with the un-used inputs and outputs?
do I ground the un-used inputs to stop it from floating/going high/low and causing noise?/de-coupling?
And , what about the outputs?
Another reason I ask, is , are cmos chips less prone to static damage if the pins are connected to ground, even the outputs with a resistor?
