11 Electrical Characteristics
This chapter provides the DC characteristics of the GMCH.
11.1
Absolute Minimum and Maximum Ratings
Table 11-1 specifies the GMCH absolute maximum and minimum ratings. Within
functional operation limits, functionality and long-term reliability can be expected.
At conditions outside functional operation condition limits, but within absolute
maximum and minimum ratings, neither functionality nor long-term reliability can be
expected. If a device is returned to conditions within functional operation limits after
having been subjected to conditions outside these limits, but within the absolute
maximum and minimum ratings, the device may be functional, but with its lifetime
degraded depending on exposure to conditions exceeding the functional operation
condition limits.
At conditions exceeding absolute maximum and minimum ratings, neither functionality
nor long-term reliability can be expected. Moreover, if a device is subjected to these
conditions for any length of time its reliability will be severely degraded or not
function when returned to conditions within the functional operating condition limits.
Although the MCH contains protective circuitry to resist damage from static electric
discharge, precautions should always be taken to avoid high static voltages or electric
fields.
