TIs request for a waiver is for the following parameters:


Parmeter  From	 To	Datasheet	  Waiver
--------  ----   --	---------	----------
 TPLH	    D	  Q	6.0 ns max	8.0 ns max
 TPHL	    D	  Q	6.0 ns max	7.0 ns max
 TPLH	    C	  Q	11.5 ns max	13.0 ns max


I have looked at the Driver Main circuit where the 74AS573s are used and I
believe these degraded parts will work, BUT ALL BETS ARE OFF IF OTHER PARAMETERS
ARE ALSO DEGRADED, ESPECIALLY:

	tsu   Setup time, data before enable C low transition
	th    Hold time, data after enable C low transition

Also, I object to their insistence that these parts be non-cancellable and non-
returnable. If these parts don't work properly in the circuit we ought to be
able to return the parts not used and cancel the parts not received.
