(Note 5)
Note 1: Absolute Maximum Ratings are valu es beyond whic h the device
may be damaged or ha ve its useful life impaire d. The datab ook specifications should be met, without exception, to ensure that the system design is
reliable over its p ower supp ly, temperature, and o utput/input loading variables. Fairchild does not recommend operation outside databook specifications.
