Notes:
1. Exceeding the absolute maximum rati ng may damage the device.
2. The device is not guaranteed to function outside its operating rating.
3. Package Therm al Resistance assumes exposed pad is soldered (or equivalent) to the devices most negative potential on the PCB. θJB uses a
4-layer and θJA in still air unless otherwise stated.
4. Maximum ICC measured with IMOD = 60mA and IBIAS = 80mA and MOD+/MOD- tied t o VCC.
