Questions about the maximum absolute ratings of ASM330LHH

ggob · ‎2025-11-05

I have a question regarding the absolute maximum ratings of the ASM330LHH.

In the datasheet, the Vin rating lists “(including CS, SCL/SPC, SDA/SDI/SDO, SDO/SA0)”.
Does this voltage range also include any overshoot and undershoot on these pins?

Additionally, if overshoot or undershoot exceeds the absolute maximum ratings,
what potential issues could occur (e.g., malfunction, degradation, or damage to internal circuitry)?

The answer to this question is universal, i.e. it applies to each and every device:

If the values specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table are exceeded, the function of the device can no longer be guaranteed. It is impossible to define the potential consequences of exceeding these values. It is the responsibility of the respective developer to comply with the Absolute Maximum Ratings by using suitable protective measures, e.g. Transient voltage suppressors (TVS).

Does it answer your question?
