Stresses above those listed under Absolute Maximum Ratings 
may cause permanent damage to the device. This is a stress 
rating only; functional operation of the device at these or any 
other conditions above those indicated in the operational 
section of this specification is not implied. Exposure to absolute 
maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect 
device reliability.
