  • (1) While the input range is 36 V, the full-scale range of the ADC scaling is 40.96 V. See the Section 6.3.1. Do not apply more than 36 V.
  • (2) RTI = Referred-to-input.
  • (3) Input leakage is positive (current flowing into the pin) for the conditions shown at the top of this table. Negative leakage currents can occur under different input conditions.
  • (4) SMBus timeout in the device resets the interface any time SCL is low for more than 28 ms.

(1) Operation outside the Absolute Maximum Ratings may cause permanent device damage. Absolute Maximum Ratings do not imply functional operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those listed under Recommended Operating Conditions. If used outside the Recommended Operating Conditions but within the Absolute Maximum Ratings, the device may not be fully functional, and this may affect device reliability, functionality, performance, and shorten the device lifetime.

(2) IN+ and IN– can have a differential voltage between –40 V and 40 V. However, the voltage at these pins must not exceed the range –0.3 V to 40 V.

(2) JEDEC document JEP157 states that 250V CDM allows safe manufacturing with a standard ESD control process.
