30 Electrical Characteristics

This section provides an overview of the dsPIC33CK256MC006 family electrical characteristics. Additional information will be provided in future revisions of this document as it becomes available.

Absolute maximum ratings for the dsPIC33CK256MC006 family are listed below. Exposure to these maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability. Functional operation of the device at these or any other conditions above the parameters indicated in the operation listings of this specification is not implied.

Table 30-1. Absolute Maximum Ratings(1)
ParameterRating
Ambient temperature under bias-40°C to +125°C
Storage temperature-65°C to +150°C
Voltage on VDD with respect to VSS-0.3V to +4.0V
Voltage on any pin that is not 5V tolerant with respect to VSS(3)-0.3V to (VDD + 0.3V)
Voltage on any 5V tolerant pin with respect to VSS(3)-0.3V to +5.5V
Maximum current out of VSS pin300 mA
Maximum current into VDD pin(2)300 mA
Maximum current sunk/sourced by any regular I/O pin15 mA
Maximum current sunk/sourced by an I/O pin with increased current drive strength

(RB1, RC8, RC9 and RD8)

25 mA
Maximum current sunk by a group of I/Os between two VSS pins(4)75 mA
Maximum current sourced by a group of I/Os between two VDD pins(4)75 mA
Maximum current sunk by all I/Os(2,5)200 mA
Maximum current sourced by all I/Os(2,5)200 mA
Note:
  1. Stresses above those listed under “Absolute Maximum Ratings” may cause permanent damage to the device. This is a stress rating only, and functional operation of the device at those, or any other conditions above those indicated in the operation listings of this specification, is not implied. Exposure to maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.
  2. Maximum allowable current is a function of device maximum power dissipation (see DC Characteristics).
  3. See the Pin Diagrams section for the 5V tolerant pins.
  4. Not applicable to AVDD and AVSS pins.
  5. For 28-pin packages, the maximum current sunk/sourced by all I/Os is limited to 150 mA.
