NOTES
1
Absolute maximum ratings are limiting values, to be applied individually, and beyond which the service ability of the circuit may be impaired. Functional operability
is not necessarily implied. Exposure to absolute maximum rating conditions for an extended period of time may affect device reliability.
2
Maximum junction temperature should not exceed +175 °C for ceramic packages, +150°C for plastic packages. Junction temperature can be calculated by:
tJ = PD (θ JA) +tA = PD (θJC) +tC
where:
PD = power dissipation
θJA = thermal impedance from junction to air (°C/W)
θJC = thermal impedance from junction to case ( °C/W)
tA = ambient temperature (°C)
tC = case temperature (°C)
typical thermal impedances:
AD9901 Ceramic DIP = θJA = 74°C/W; θ JC = 21°C/W
AD9901 LCC = θ JA = 80°C/W; θJC = 19°C/W
AD9901 PLCC = θ JA = 88.2°C/W; θJC = 45.2°C/W

RSET = 47.5 Ω; R L = 182 Ω.
