(2) VIN+ and VIN– are the voltages at the IN+ and IN– pins, respectively.

(3) Input voltage may exceed the voltage shown without causing damage to the device if the current at that terminal is limited to 5 mA.

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