  1. When power is initially turned on, VDD must be within its correct operating range (3.0V to 28V) to guarantee the output sampling. The output state is valid after the startup time of 10μs typical from the operating voltage reaching 3V.

  2. Typical values are defined at TA = +25 C, VDD = 12V. Maximum and minimum values over the operating temperature range is not tested in production but guaranteed by design, process control and characterization.

  3. Guaranteed by design, process control, and characterization. Not tested in production.

  4. The device limits the output current IOUT to current limit of IOCL.

  1. Stresses greater than those listed under Absolute Maximum Ratings can 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 under Recommended Operating Conditions is not implied. Exposure to Absolute Maximum Ratings for extended periods can affect device reliability.

  2. The absolute maximum VDD of 32V is a transient stress rating and is not meant as a functional operating condition. It is not recommended to operate the device at the absolute maximum-rated conditions for any period of time.
