(1) 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.
(2) The GATE pin voltage is typically 12 V above the IN pin voltage when the LM5050-1 is enabled (that is, OFF Pin is Open or Low, and VIN > VOUT). Therefore, the absolute maximum rating for the IN pin voltage applies only when the LM5050-1 is disabled (that is, OFF Pin is logic high), or for a momentary surge to that voltage because the Absolute Maximum Rating for the GATE pin is also 100 V
