Data Sheet Categories
In order to provide the latest information to designers, some datasheets are published before data has been fully
characterized. Datasheets are designated as "Product Brief," "Advanced," "Production," and "Datasheet
Supplement." The definition of these categories are as follows:
Product Brief
The product brief is a summarized version of a datasheet (advanced or production) containing general product
information. This brief gives an overview of specific device and family information.
Advance
This datasheet version contains initial estimated information based on simulation, other products, devices, or speed
grades. This information can be used as estimates, but not for production.
Unmarked (production)
This datasheet version contains information that is considered to be final.
Datasheet Supplement
The datasheet supplement gives specific device information for a derivative family that differs from the general family
datasheet. The supplement is to be used in conjunction with the datasheet to obtain more detailed information and
for specifications that do not differ between the two families.
Export Administration Regulations (EAR)
The products described in this datasheet are subject to the Export Administration Regulations (EAR). They could
require an approved export license prior to export from the United States. An export includes release of product or
disclosure of technology to a foreign national inside or outside the United States.
