Absolute Maximum Ratings

over operating free-air temperature range (unless otherwise noted)(1)
MIN MAX UNIT
VCC Supply voltage –0.5 6.5 V
VI Input voltage(2) –0.5 6.5 V
VO Output voltage(2)(3) –0.5 VCC + 0.5 V
IIK Input clamp current VI < 0 –50 mA
IOK Output clamp current VO < 0 –50 mA
IO Continuous output current ±50 mA
Continuous current through VCC or GND ±100 mA
Tstg Storage temperature –65 150 °C
TJ Junction temperature 150 °C
Stresses beyond those listed under Absolute Maximum Ratings may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings only, which do not imply functional operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated under Recommended Operating Conditions. Exposure to absolute-maximum-rated conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.
The input and output negative-voltage ratings may be exceeded if the input and output current ratings are observed.
The value of VCC is provided in the recommended operating conditions table.

ESD Ratings

VALUE UNIT
V(ESD) Electrostatic discharge Human-body model (HBM), per ANSI/ESDA/JEDEC JS-001(1) 2000 V
Charged-device model (CDM), per JEDEC specification JESD22-C101(2) 1000
Machine model (MM) 200
JEDEC document JEP155 states that 500-V HBM allows safe manufacturing with a standard ESD control process.
JEDEC document JEP157 states that 250-V CDM allows safe manufacturing with a standard ESD control process.
