Hi Alex,

We did! I have a new member of my team, Markus Zehendner, we discussed this and he will be responding to you today. Thank you for your patience on this.

Hi Alex,

as long as the voltages you apply on pins 6/7 don't exceed the absolute maximum ratings(-1.8 V to 4 V for the 201) , you shouldn't be able to damage the device.

Best regards
