Operating Ratings are conditions under the device is intended to be functional. For specifications and test conditions, see Electrical Characteristics
Maximum switching frequency is programmed by RRT. The device supports up to 2200kHz switching.  
High junction temperatures degrade operating lifetimes. Operating lifetime is de-rated for junction temperatures greater than 125°C.
