On page 335 in the section "Input High Voltage", it specifies parameter D041 "with Schmitt trigger buffer" to have a min/max range of 0.8 Vdd to Vdd. On a 5V system therefore, any input voltage from 4.0V to 5.0V is guaranteed to be interpreted as a logic high. > I did find no clause that it guarantees any level higher to be > interpreted as high; Actually that's exactly what it's saying.
