All specifications at -40 ° C to +85 ° C, AVDD = +5V, DVDD = +1.8V, f CLKIN = 7.68MHz, PGA = 1, and V REF = +2.5V, unless otherwise noted.

over operating free-air temperature range unless otherwise noted (1)

(1) Stresses above those listed under Absolute Maximum Ratings may cause permanent damage to the device. Exposure to absolute maximum conditions for extended periods may degrade device reliability. These are stress ratings only, and functional operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those specified is not implied.

This integrated circuit can be damaged by ESD. Texas Instruments recommends that all integrated circuits be handled with appropriate precautions. Failure to observe proper handling and installation procedures can cause damage.

ESD damage can range from subtle performance degradation to complete device failure. Precision integrated circuits may be more susceptible to damage because very small parametric changes could cause the device not to meet its published specifications.
