Absolute Maximum and Minimum Ratings
Table 3 specifies 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 then, when returned to conditions within the
functional operating condition limits, it will either not function, or its reliability will be
severely degraded.
Although the processor contains protective circuitry to resist damage from static
electric discharge, precautions should always be taken to avoid high static voltages or
electric fields.

NOTES:
1. For functional operation, all processor electrical, signal quality, mechanical and thermal specifications must be
satisfied.
2. Excessive overshoot or undershoot on any signal will likely result in permanent damage to the processor.
3. Storage temperature is applicable to storage conditions only. In this scenario, the processor must not receive
a clock, and no lands can be connected to a voltage bias. Storage within these limits will not affect the long-
term reliability of the device. For functional operation, refer to the processor case temperature specifications.
4. This rating applies to the processor and does not include any tray or packaging.
5. Failure to adhere to this specification can affect the long term reliability of the processor.
