publication hereof.
Suitability for use in automotive applications — This Nexperia product
has been qualified for use in automotive applications. Unless otherwise
agreed in writing, the product is not designed, authorized or warranted to be
suitable for use in life support, life-critical or safety-critical systems or
equipment, nor in applications where failure or malfunction of an Nexperia
product can reasonably be expected to result in personal injury, death or
severe property or environmental damage. Nexperia and its suppliers
accept no liability for inclusion and/or use of Nexperia products in such
equipment or applications and therefore such inclusion and/or use is at the
customer's own risk.
Applications — Applications that are described herein for any of these
products are for illustrative purposes only. Nexperia makes no
representation or warranty that such applications will be suitable for the
specified use without further testing or modification.
Customers are responsible for the design and operation of their applications
and products using Nexperia products, and Nexperia accepts no liability for
any assistance with applications or customer product design. It is
customer’s sole responsibility to determine whether the Nexperia product is
suitable and fit for the customer’s applications and products planned, as well
as for the planned application and use of customer’s third party customer(s).
Customers should provide appropriate design and operating safeguards to
minimize the risks associated with their applications and products.
Nexperia does not accept any liability related to any default, damage, costs
or problem which is based on any weakness or default in the customer’s
applications or products, or the application or use by customer’s third party
customer(s). Customer is responsible for doing all necessary testing for the
customer’s applications and products using Nexperia products in order to
avoid a default of the applications and the products or of the application or
use by customer’s third party customer(s). Nexperia does not accept any
liability in this respect.
Limiting values — Stress above one or more limiting values (as defined in
the Absolute Maximum Ratings System of IEC 60134) will cause permanent
damage to the device. Limiting values are stress ratings only and (proper)
operation of the device at these or any other conditions above those given in
the Recommended operating conditions section (if present) or the
Characteristics sections of this document is not warranted. Constant or
repeated exposure to limiting values will permanently and irreversibly affect
the quality and reliability of the device.
Terms and conditions of commercial sale — Nexperia products are sold
subject to the general terms and conditions of commercial sale, as
published at http://www.nexperia.com/profile/terms, unless otherwise
agreed in a valid written individual agreement. In case an individual
agreement is concluded only the terms and conditions of the respective
