These devices have limited built-in ESD protection. The leads should be shorted together or the device placed in conductive foam
during storage or handling to prevent electrostatic damage to the MOS gates.

(1) Absolute Maximum Ratings indicate limits beyond which damage to the device may occur. DC and AC electrical specifications do not
apply when operating the device beyond its specified operating conditions.
(2) All voltages are measured with respect to GND = 0V, unless otherwise noted.
(3) If Military/Aerospace specified devices are required, please contact the TI Sales Office/Distributors for availability and specifications.
(4) The absolute maximum junction temperature (T
J
max) for this device is 150°C. The maximum allowable power dissipation is dictated by
T
J
max, the junction-to-ambient thermal resistance (θ
JA
), and the ambient temperature T
A
, and can be calculated using the formula
P
D
max = (T
J
max - T
A
) / θ
JA
. The values for maximum power dissipation will be reached only when the device is operated in a severe
fault condition (e.g., when input or output pins are driven beyond the power supply voltages, or the power supply polarity is reversed).
Obviously, such conditions should always be avoided.
