Absolute Maximum Ratings
(1)
Stresses exceeding the absolute maximum ratings may damage the device. The device may not function or be operable above the recommended operating conditions and stressing the parts to these levels is not recommended. In addition, extended exposure to stresses above the recommended operating cond itions may affect device reliability. The
absolute maximum ratings are stress ratings only. Values are at T
= 25°C unless otherwise noted.
