APPLICATION NOTES

Application of reverse bias voltages to the emitter-base junctions

to ensure that reverse bias voltages above 5 V cannot be applied

during such transient conditions as at circuit turn-on and

turn-off.

Stray thermoelectric voltages generated by dissimilar metals at

the contacts to the input terminals can prevent realization of the

predicted drift performance. Both input terminals should be

maintained at the same temperature, preferably close to the tem-

perature of the device’s package.
