Rainbow Electronics LM92 - Manual (Page 5)

Electrical Characteristics
(Continued)
Note 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 rated operating conditions.
Note 2: When the input voltage (V
I
) at any pin exceeds the power supplies (V
I
< GND or V
I
> +V
S
) the current at that pin should be limited to 5 mA. The 20 mA
maximum package input current rating limits the number of pins that can safely exceed the power supplies with an input current of 5 mA to four.
Note 3: See AN-450 “Surface Mounting Methods and Their Effect on Product Reliability” or the section titled “Surface Mount” found in a current National Semicon-
ductor Linear Data Book for other methods of soldering surface mount devices.
Note 4: Human body model, 100 pF discharged through a 1.5 k Ω resistor. Machine model, 200 pF discharged directly into each pin.
Note 5: LM92 θ
JA
(thermal resistance, junction-to-ambient) when attached to a printed circuit board with 2 oz. foil is 200 ˚C/W.
Note 6: While the LM92 has a full-scale-range in excess of 128 ˚C, prolonged operation at temperatures above 125 ˚C is not recommended.
Note 7: Typicals are at T
A
= 25 ˚C and represent most likely parametric norm.
Note 8: Limits are guaranteed to National’s AOQL (Average Outgoing Quality Level).
