NOTICE
Absolute maximum ratings are the extreme limits that the device will withstand without damage to the device.
However, the electrical and mechanical characteristics are not guaranteed as the maximum limits (above
recommended operating conditions) are approached, nor will the device necessarily operate at absolute
maximum ratings.
