Maximum Power Dissipation

The maximum safe power dissipation for the AD8003 is limited

approximately 150°C, which is the glass transition temperature,

the plastic changes its properties. Even temporarily exceeding

this temperature limit may change the stresses that the package

exerts on the die, permanently shifting the parametric performance

of the AD8003. Exceeding a junction temperature of 175°C for

an extended period can result in changes in silicon devices,

potentially causing degradation or loss of functionality.

ESD CAUTION

ESD (electrostatic discharge) sensitive device. Electrostatic charges as high as 4000 V readily accumulate

on the human body and test equipment and can discharge without detection. Although this product features

proprietary ESD protection circuitry, permanent damage may occur on devices subjected to high energy

electrostatic discharges. Therefore, proper ESD precautions are recommended to avoid performance

degradation and loss of functionality.
