Handling Procedures
Please observe the following precautions to avoid
damage:
Static Sensitivity
These electronic devices are sensitive to
electrostatic discharge (ESD) and can be damaged
by static electricity. Proper ESD control techniques
should be used when handling these Class 0 (HBM)
devices.
1. Exceeding any one or combination of these limits may cause
permanent damage to this device.
2. MACOM does not recommend sustained operation near these
survivability limits.
