Note 1:
Absolute maximum ratings are values beyond which the device may be damaged or have its useful life impaired. Functional operation under these conditions
is not implied.
Note 2:
Either voltage limit or current limit is sufficient to protect inputs.
Note 3:
All outputs loaded; thresholds on input associated with output under test.
Note 4:
Maximum test duration 2.0 ms, one output loaded at a time.
