Enable/Disable Function (CLC1018)
however, prior knowledge of actual signal levels and load
impedance is needed to determine the dissipated power.
The CLC1018 offers an active-low disable pin that can be
used to lower its supply current. Leave the pin floating to
enable the part. Pull the disable pin to the negative supply
(which is ground in a single supply application) to disable
the output. During the disable condition, the nominal
supply current will drop to below 30μA and the output will
be at high impedance with about 2pF capacitance.

Power dissipation should not be a factor when operating
under the stated 1k ohm load condition. However,
applications with low impedance, DC coupled loads
should be analyzed to ensure that maximum allowed
junction temperature is not exceeded. Guidelines listed
below can be used to verify that the particular application
will not cause the device to operate beyond it’s intended
operating range.
The dynamic power is focused primarily within the output
stage driving the load. This value can be calculated as:

The CLC1008 is short circuit protected. However, this may
not guarantee that the maximum junction temperature
(+150°C) is not exceeded under all conditions. Figure 6
shows the maximum safe power dissipation in the package
vs. the ambient temperature for the packages available.
Maximum power levels are set by the absolute maximum
junction rating of 150°C. To calculate the junction
temperature, the package thermal resistance value
