6. Exceeding any one or combination of these limits may cause
permanent damage to this device.
7. M/A-COM Technology Solutions does not recommend
sustained operation near these survivability limits.
8. Operating at nominal conditions with TJ ≤ +150°C will ensure
MTTF > 1 x 106 hours.
9. Junction Temperature (TJ) = TC + Өjc * ((V * I) - (POUT - PIN))
Typical thermal resistance (Өjc) = 19° C/W.
a) For TC = 25°C,
TJ = 46 °C @ 5 V, 220 mA
b) For TC = 85°C,
TJ = 106 °C @ 5 V, 220 mA
