Absolute Maximum Ratings

Stresses in excess of the absolute maximum ratings can cause permanent

damage to the device. These are absolute stress ratings only. Functional

operation of the device is not implied at these or any other conditions in excess of

those given in the operational sections of the data sheet. Exposure to absolute

maximum ratings for extended periods can adversely affect device reliability.
