Absolute Maximum Ratings

Stresses in excess of the absolute maximum ratings can permanently damage the device. Functional operation is not implied at

these or any other conditions in excess of conditions represented in the operational sections of this data sheet. Exposure to

absolute maximum ratings for extended periods may adversely affect device reliability.

Handling Precautions

Although ESD protection circuitrry has been designed into the the VCO-600A, proper precautions should be taken when handling

and mounting. VI employs a human body model and a charged-device model (CDM) for ESD susceptibility testing and design

protection evaluation. ESD thresholds are dependent on the circuit parameters used to define the model. Although no industry wide

standard has been adopted for the CDM, a standard HBM of resistance=1.5Kohms and capacitance = 100pF is widely used and

therefore can be used for comparison purposes.
