electrical characteristics
Note 1: Stresses beyond those listed under Absolute Maximum Ratings
may cause permanent damage to the device. Exposure to any Absolute
Maximum Rating condition for extended periods may affect device
reliability and lifetime.
Note 2: All currents into pins are positive, all voltages are referenced to
GND unless otherwise specified.
The l denotes the specifications which apply over the full operating
temperature range, otherwise specifications are at T
A
= 25°C. V

Note 3: An internal clamp limits the GATE pin to a maximum of 6.5V above
the SOURCE pin. Driving either GATE or SOURCE pin to voltages beyond
the clamp may damage the device.
