may cause permanent damage to the device. This is a stress Supply Voltage, Continuous 27 V rating only; functional operation of the device at these or any Supply Voltage, Transient 30 V other conditions above those indicated in the operational Reverse Supply Protection −0.3 V section of this specification is not implied. Exposure to absolute Operating Temperature 125°C maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect Storage Temperature −65°C to +150°C device reliability. Output Short-Circuit Duration1 Indefinite 1 Output short circuits result in a latch-off condition.
ESD CAUTION
ESD (electrostatic discharge) sensitive device. Electrostatic charges as high as 4000 V readily accumulate on the human body and test equipment and can discharge without detection. Although this product features proprietary ESD protection circuitry, permanent damage may occur on devices subjected to high energy electrostatic discharges. Therefore, proper ESD precautions are recommended to avoid performance degradation or loss of functionality.
