1 Exposure to maximum rating conditions for extended periods may reduce device reliability. There is no damage to device with only one parameter set at the limit and all other parameters
set at or below their nominal value. Exceeding any of the limits listed here may result in permanent damage to the device.
ESD HANDLING:
Although this device is designed to be as robust as possible, electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage this device.
This device must be protected at all times from ESD when handling or transporting. Static charges may easily produce
potentials of several kilovolts on the human body or equipment, which can discharge without detection.
Industry-standard ESD handling precautions should be used at all times.
1 Performance is guaranteed only under the conditions listed in this table.
2 Connector and board loss are de-embedded.
3 Tested with a 100 kHz square wave, 1000 pF capacitance-to-ground on the ENABLE pin. Switching time can be improved by reducing the value of, or eliminating, the 1000 pF capacitor on
pin 6 (component M17 in Figure 19).
