the application or use by cust omer’s third party
customer(s). NXP does not accept any liability in this
respect.
Limiting values  Stress above one or more limiting
values (as defined in the Absolute Maximum Ratings
System of IEC 60134) will cause permanent damage to
the device. Limiting values are stress ratings only and
(proper) operat ion of the device at these or any othe r
conditions above those given in the Recommended
operating conditions section (if present) or the
Characteristics sections of this document is not warranted.
Constant or repeated exposure to limiting values will
permanently and irreversibly affect the qual ity and
reliability of the device.
