Does anyone know the max voltage you can run a 16c84 at ?

I tried the other day, at about 8 volts it became unstable
could this have been because it was misreading the eeprom ?
I should try programming it at a higher voltage.
But before I do, has anyone else done this ?

It would be great if its possible to run direct from a 9 volt
battery

I am not bothered if the odd one gets fried in this application
also as current drain will be very low I can use a large current
limiting resistor of 330 Ohms or so in the supply line

As a last resort suppose I could put a led in the supply line
