Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) Precautions

When handling this UltraCMOS™ device, observe the

same precautions that you would use with other ESD-

sensitive devices. Although this device contains

circuitry to protect it from damage due to ESD,

precautions should be taken to avoid exceeding the

specified rating.

Latch-Up Avoidance

Unlike conventional CMOS devices, UltraCMOS™

devices are immune to latch-up.

This pin supports two interface options:

Single-pin control mode. A nominal 3-volt

supply connection is required.

Complementary-pin control mode. A

complementary CMOS control signal

to CTRL is supplied to this pin. By-

passing on this pin is not required in

this mode.

Figure 4. Maximum Input Power

Exceeding absolute maximum ratings may cause

permanent damage. Operation should be restricted to

the limits in the Operating Ranges table. Operation

between operating range maximum and absolute

maximum for extended periods may reduce reliability.

Moisture Sensitivity Level

The Moisture Sensitivity Level rating for the PE4259 in

the SC70 package is MSL1.

Note: 4. All RF pins must be DC blocked with an external series

Switching Frequency

The PE4259 has a maximum 25 kHz switching rate.
