Wolfgang Miller
Prodigy 30 points

Part Number: PCM5121

The temperature information of the PCM5121 is a little confusing. Here Information of datasheet: 

Here the information of product web site: 

Can the PCM5121 be used in an industrial temperature range with an ambient -40..85 °C without problems?

    Hi Wolfgang,

    I would advise trusting the lesser of the two ranges [-25, 85 °C] in order to error on the side of caution. The junction temperature is the temperature of the actual semiconductor within the package, whereas the operating temperature specified for different packages is the maximum ambient temperature range for each overall package.

    Please let me know if you have any further inquiries!
