Hello,
I'm not very clear on what are the specs to look for when trying to see if a line driver IC is capable of driving a certain line. For example, take the SN74ls240 https://ecee.colorado.edu/~mcclurel/sn74ls240rev5.pdf , if I am to take that to drive a coax cable about 150 feet with 50 ohm load for impedance match, what parameters do I need to look at to determine if this IC is capable of driving the cable? Thanks!
