ABSOLUTE MAXIMUM RATINGS (Note 1) Rating Value Unit V to GND 0.3 to 6.5 V DD A1, B1, W1, A2, B2, W2 Voltage to GND V DD I 20 mA MAX Digital Inputs and Output Voltage to GND 0 to 6.5 V Operating Temperature Range 40 to +85 C Maximum Junction Temperature (T ) 150 C JMAX Storage Temperature 65 to +150 C Lead Temperature (Soldering, 10 sec) 300 C Stresses exceeding Maximum Ratings may damage the device. Maximum Ratings are stress ratings only. Functional operation above the Recommended Operating Conditions is not implied. Extended exposure to stresses above the Recommended Operating Conditions may affect device reliability. 1. Maximum terminal current is bounded by the maximum current handling of the switches, maximum power dissipation of the package, and maximum applied voltage across any two of the A, B, and W terminals at a given resistance.
