(1) Non-linearity is defined as the deviation of fOUT from VIN × (10 kHz/−10 VDC) when the circuit has been trimmed for zero error at 10 Hz and at 10 kHz, over the frequency range 1 Hz to 11 kHz. For the timing capacitor, CT, use NPO ceramic, Teflon®, or polystyrene.

(1) The absolute maximum junction temperature (TJmax) for this device is 150°C. The maximum allowable power dissipation is dictated by TJmax, the junction-to-ambient thermal resistance (θJA), and the ambient temperature TA, and can be calculated using the formula PDmax = (TJmax - TA) / θJA. The values for maximum power dissipation will be reached only when the device is operated in a severe fault condition (e.g., when input or output pins are driven beyond the power supply voltages, or the power supply polarity is reversed). Obviously, such conditions should always be avoided.
