Datasheet Categories
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," "Advance,"
"Preliminary," and "Production." The definition of these categories are as follows:
Product Brief
The product brief is a summarized version of a datasheet (advance or production) and contains
general product information. This document gives an overview of specific device and family
information.
Advance
This 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. This label only
applies to the DC and Switching Characteristics chapter of the datasheet and will only be used
when the data has not been fully characterized.
Preliminary
The datasheet contains information based on simulation and/or initial characterization. The
information is believed to be correct, but changes are possible.
Unmarked (production)
This version contains information that is considered to be final.
Export Administration Regulations (EAR)
The products described in this document 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.
