5.1 Absolute Maximum Ratings

over operating free-air temperature range (unless otherwise noted)(1)
MIN MAX UNIT
VCC Supply voltage range –0.5 7 V
VI Input voltage range(2) –0.5 7 V
VO Output voltage range(2) –0.5 VCC + 0.5 V
IIK Input clamp current VI < -0.5V -20 mA
IOK Output clamp current VO < -0.5V or VO > VCC + 0.5V ±20 mA
IO Continuous output current VO = 0 to VCC ±25 mA
Continuous output current through VCC or GND ±75 mA
TJ Junction temperature 150 °C
Tstg Storage temperature -65 150 °C
(1) Operation outside the Absolute Maximum Ratings may cause permanent device damage. Absolute maximum ratings do not imply functional operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those listed under Recommended Operating Conditions. If briefly operating outside the Recommended Operating Conditions but within the Absolute Maximum Ratings, the device may not sustain damage, but it may not be fully functional. Operating the device in this manner may affect device reliability, functionality, performance, and shorten the device lifetime.
(2) The input and output voltage ratings may be exceeded if the input and output current ratings are observed.
