Stresses beyond those listed under Absolute Maximum Ratings may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings only, which do not imply functional operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated under Recommended Operating Conditions. Exposure to absolute-maximum-rated conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.
Input pins are diode-clamped to the power-supply rails. Limit the input current to 10 mA or less if the analog input voltage exceeds AVDD + 0.3 V or is less than AVSS – 0.3 V, or if the digital input voltage exceeds DVDD + 0.3 V or is less than DGND – 0.3 V.

Noise data measured in a 10-second interval. Test not performed in production. Input-referred noise is calculated with the input shorted (without electrode resistance) over a 10-second interval.
CMRR is measured with a common-mode signal of AVSS + 0.3 V to AVDD – 0.3 V. The values indicated are the minimum of the eight channels.
