NOTES: 3. Full-scale frequency is the maximum operating frequency of the device without saturation.
4. The temperature coefficient of output frequency is measured with constant irradiance as the temperature is varied between −25°C
and 70°C. The constant irradiance is sufficiently high that the output frequency is much greater than the dark frequency over the
entire temperature range.

NOTES: 5. Nonlinearity is defined as the deviation of f
O
from a straight line between zero and full scale, expressed as a percent of full scale.
6. Nonlinearity test condition: S0 = S1 = H, S2 = S3 = L.
7. Principal frequency is the internal oscillator frequency, equivalent to divide-by-1 output selection.
