(1) Absolute Maximum Ratings indicate limits beyond which damage to
the device may occur. Recommended Operating Conditions indicate
conditions for which the device is intended to be functional, but specific
performance is not ensured. For ensured specifications and the test conditions,
see the Electrical Characteristics.
(5) The maximum power dissipation is a function of
TJ(max) , θJA, and TA. The maximum
allowable power dissipation at any ambient temperature is PD =
(TJ(max)–T A)/θJA. All numbers apply for
packages soldered directly into a PC board. Refer to Thermal Considerations.
