(1) 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.
(2) IN+ and IN– may have a differential voltage between –40 V and 40 V. However, the voltage at these pins must not exceed the range –0.3 V to 40 V.

6.2 ESD Ratings

Machine model (MM)±150
(1) JEDEC document JEP155 states that 500-V HBM allows safe manufacturing with a standard ESD control process.
(2) JEDEC document JEP157 states that 250-V CDM allows safe manufacturing with a standard ESD control process.

(1) While the input range is 36 V, the full-scale range of the ADC scaling is 40.96 V. See the Basic ADC Functions section. Do not apply more than 36 V.
(2) RTI = Referred-to-input.
(3) Input leakage is positive (current flowing into the pin) for the conditions shown at the top of this table. Negative leakage currents can occur under different input conditions.
(4) SMBus timeout in the INA226 resets the interface any time SCL is low for more than 28 ms.
