USE WITH PRECAUTIONS

• Managing unused circuits

If there is an unused circuit, the following connection is recommended.

• Ratings of input/output pin voltage

When the voltage of input/output pin exceeds the absolute maximum rating, the parasitic diode within the IC may conduct,

causing characteristics degradation or damage. In addition, if the input pin is lower than V−, or the output pin exceeds

the power supply voltage, it is recommended to make a clamping circuit using a diode with low forward voltage (e.g.:

Schottky diode) as protection.

• Range of common-mode input voltage

When the supply voltage does not meet the condition of electrical characteristics, the range of common-mode input

voltage is as follows.

VICM (TYP.): V− ~ V+ − 1.5 [V] (TA = 25°C).

During designing, do include some tolerance by considering temperature characteristics etc.

• Maximum output voltage

The TYP. value range of the maximum output voltage when the supply voltage does not meet the condition of electrical

characteristics is as follows:

Vom+ (TYP.): V+ − 1.5 [V] (TA = 25°C), Vom− (TYP.): V− + 1.5 [V] (TA = 25°C)

During designing, do include some tolerance by considering characteristics variation, temperature characteristics and

so on. In addition, also note that the output voltage range (Vom+ − Vom−) will become narrow when the output current

increases.

• Output Operation

This IC will not be able to sink output current when the output voltage is V− + 1.5 V and below. In this case, the output

voltage level can be improved to the V- side by connecting the load resistor between the output terminal and V- to sink

the current at the load resistor. (The effect will differ depending on the flow of current in the load resistance.)

• Handling of ICs

When stress is added to ICs due to warpage or bending of a board, the characteristic may fluctuates due to piezoelectric

(piezo) effect. Therefore, pay attention to warpage or bending of a board.
