Feb. 2012
 Table 3, ESD Protection Characteristics, removed the word “Minimum” after the ESD class rating. ESD
ratings are characterized during new product development but are not 100% tested during production. ESD
ratings provided in the data sheet are intended to be used as a guideline when handling ESD sensitive
devices, p. 2.
 Replaced Case Outline 465B--03, Issue D, with 465B--04, Issue F, p. 1, 9--10. Deleted Style 1 pin note on
Sheet 2. On Sheet 2, changed dimension B in mm from 13.6--13.8 to 13.59--13.84, changed dimension H in
mm from 1.45--1.7 to 1.45--1.70, changed dimension K in mm from 4.44--5.21 to 4.45--5.21, changed
dimension M in mm from 22.15--22.55 to 22.15--22.56, changed dimension N in mm from 19.3--22.6 to
22.12--22.58, changed dimension Q in mm from 3--3.51 to 3.00--3.51, changed dimension R and S in mm
from 13.1--13.3 to 13.08--13.34.
 Replaced Case Outline 465C--02, Issue D, with 465C--03, Issue E, p. 1, 11--12. Deleted Style 1 pin note on
Sheet 2. On Sheet 2, changed dimension B in mm from 13.6--13.8 to 13.59--13.84, changed dimension H in
