Using Opto Couplers
Assuming that a single HCT output is only feeding this optocoupler, a logic 1 voltage of about 4.9V can be presumed. The output current available from a HCT gate to drive the optocoupler input is limited

Make sure your optocoupler is properly biased
If the optocoupler is current-starved, the output voltage will keep rising until the proper amount of LED current conducts through the optocoupler. This results in overvoltage conditions on the output, and is
