8.3.3 Clamp Diode Structure

The inputs and outputs to this device have both positive and negative clamping diodes as depicted in Electrical

Placement of Clamping Diodes for Each Input and Output.

CAUTION

Voltages beyond the values specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table can cause damage to

the device. The input and output voltage ratings may be exceeded if the input and output clamp-

current ratings are observed.
