Stresses beyond those listed under “Absolute Maximum Ratings” may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings only, and functional
operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated in the operational sections of the specifications is not implied. Exposure to
absolute maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.

Note 1:
Production test at room ambient temperature only. Die parameters are guaranteed by design and characterization at -40°C
and +85°C.
Note 2:
Source capacitance represents the total capacitance at the IN pad during characterization of the noise and bandwidth
parameters.
Note 3:
Guaranteed by design and characterization.
Note 4:
Input-referred noise density is I
N
/√BW. No external filters are used for the noise measurements.
Note 5:
Deterministic jitter is measured with a K28.5 pattern (0011 1110 1011 0000 0101).
