Table 3. Recommended Operating Conditions
| Parameter | Symbol | Test Condition | Min | Typ | Max | Unit |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Ambient Temperature | T A | -40 | 25 | 85 | °C | |
| Core Supply Voltage | V DD | 3 | 3.3 | 3.6 | V | |
| Core Supply Voltage | V DD | 2.25 | 2.5 | 2.75 | V | |
| Output Buffer Voltage | V DDOx | 1.71 | 1.8 | 1.89 | V | |
| Output Buffer Voltage | V DDOx | 2.25 | 2.5 | 2.75 | V | |
| Output Buffer Voltage | V DDOx | 3 | 3.3 | 3.6 | V |
Notes: All minimum and maximum specifications are guaranteed and apply across the recommended operating conditions. Typical values apply at nominal supply voltages and an operating temperature of 25 °C unless otherwise noted. VDD and VDDOx can be operated at independent voltages.
Power supply sequencing for VDD and VDDOx requires that all VDDOx be powered up either before or at the same time as VDD.
