250 µA supply current — the trade-off
Quiescent current is 250 µA, which is low enough to leave on in a battery-powered design without draining the pack overnight. The trade-off is output drive: each channel can source or sink only 1 mA. That is fine for feeding an ADC input or a microcontroller pin, but do not expect to drive a long twisted-pair cable or a meter movement directly. If you need to push a signal more than a few inches on the board, buffer the output.
Lifecycle and sourcing reality
This part carries an Active lifecycle status with ROHS3 compliance. That means you can qualify it into a new BOM without worrying about a sudden EOL.
