(1) Stresses beyond those listed under Absolute Maximum Ratings may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings only and functional operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated under Recommended Operating Conditions are not implied. Exposure to absolute-maximum-rated conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.
(2) All voltage values are with respect to substrate ground terminal VSS.
(3) The maximum junction temperature for continuous operation is limited by package constraints. Operation above this temperature may result in reduced reliability or lifetime of the device.
