Notes:

1) Exceeding these ratings may damage the device.

2) Measured by using differential oscilloscope probe.

3) The device is not guaranteed to function outside of its

operating conditions.

4) The voltage rating can be in the range of -3V to +23V for a

period of 25ns or shorter with a maximum repetition rate of

1000kHz when the input voltage is 16V.

5) Measured on EVL8792-LE-00A, 4-layer PCB, 78mmx81mm.

6) The

value of θ

JA given in this table is only valid for comparison

with other packages and cannot be used for design purposes.

These values were calculated in accordance with JESD51-7,

and simulated on a specified JEDEC board. They do not

represent the performance obtained in an actual application.
