Can one operate a 2716 with +10 volts for Vcc? The
datasheet seems
to say that the limit for Vcc on the Inmos part is +11v/(10v
nominal).
No. Ratings of 2716 parts may vary somewhat by vendor, but generally
all pins other than Vpp have an absolute maximum rating of 6V, and Vpp
has an absolute maximum rating of 28V.
If the Intersil part is actually being used at 10V, and you wanted to
replace it with a 2716, you'd need to add level shifters.
