Precaution on using ROHM Products 
1.    Our Products are designed and manufactured for application in ordinary electronic equipments (such as AV equipment, 
OA  equipment,  telecommunication  equipment,  home  electronic  appliances,  amusement  equipment,  etc.).    If  you 
intend to use our Products in devices requiring extremely high reliability (such as medical equipment 
(Note 1)
, transport 
equipment, traffic equipment, aircraft/spacecraft, nuclear power controllers, fuel controllers, car equipment including car 
accessories,  safety  devices,  etc.)  and  whose  malfunction  or  failure  may  cause  loss  of  human  life,  bodily  injury  or 
serious damage to property (Specific Applications), please consult with the ROHM sales representative in advance. 
Unless otherwise agreed in writing by ROHM in advance, ROHM shall not be in any way responsible or liable for any 
damages, expenses or losses incurred by you or third parties arising from the use of any ROHMs Products for Specific 
Applications.

2.    ROHM  designs  and  manufactures  its  Products  subject  to  strict  quality  control  system.  However,  semiconductor 
products can fail or malfunction at a certain rate. Please be sure to implement, at your own responsibilities, adequate 
safety measures including but not limited to fail-safe design against the physical injury, damage to any property, which 
a failure or malfunction of our Products may cause. The following are examples of safety measures: 
[a] Installation of protection circuits or other protective devices to improve system safety 
[b] Installation of redundant circuits to reduce the impact of single or multiple circuit failure 
 
3.    Our  Products  are  designed  and  manufactured  for  use  under  standard  conditions  and  not  under  any  special  or 
extraordinary  environments  or  conditions,  as  exemplified  below.  Accordingly,  ROHM  shall  not  be  in  any  way 
responsible or liable for any damages, expenses or losses arising from the use of any ROHMs Products under any 
special  or  extraordinary  environments  or  conditions.    If  you  intend  to  use  our  Products  under  any  special  or 
extraordinary  environments  or  conditions  (as  exemplified  below),  your  independent  verification  and  confirmation  of 
product performance, reliability, etc, prior to use, must be necessary: 
[a] Use of our Products in any types of liquid, including water, oils, chemicals, and organic solvents 
[b] Use of our Products outdoors or in places where the Products are exposed to direct sunlight or dust 
[c] Use of our Products in places where the Products are exposed to sea wind or corrosive gases, including Cl2, 
H2S, NH3, SO2, and NO2 
[d] Use of our Products in places where the Products are exposed to static electricity or electromagnetic waves 
[e] Use of our Products in proximity to heat-producing components, plastic cords, or other flammable items 
[f] Sealing or coating our Products with resin or other coating materials 
[g] Use of our Products without cleaning residue of flux (even if you use no-clean type fluxes, cleaning residue of 
flux is recommended); or Washing our Products by using water or water-soluble cleaning agents for cleaning 
residue after soldering 
[h] Use of the Products in places subject to dew condensation 
 
4.    The Products are not subject to radiation-proof design. 
 
5.    Please verify and confirm characteristics of the final or mounted products in using the Products. 
 
6.    In particular, if a transient load (a large amount of load applied in a short period of time, such as pulse. is applied, 
confirmation of performance characteristics after on-board mounting is strongly recommended. Avoid applying power 
exceeding normal rated power; exceeding the power rating under steady-state loading condition may negatively affect 
product performance and reliability. 
 
7.    De-rate Power Dissipation (Pd) depending on Ambient temperature (Ta). When used in sealed area, confirm the actual 
ambient temperature. 
 
8.    Confirm that operation temperature is within the specified range described in the product specification. 
 
9.    ROHM shall not be in any way responsible or liable for failure induced under deviant condition from what is defined in 
this document. 
 
Precaution for Mounting / Circuit board design 
1.    When a highly active halogenous (chlorine, bromine, etc.) flux is used, the residue of flux may negatively affect product 
performance and reliability. 
 
2.    In principle, the reflow soldering method must be used; if flow soldering method is preferred, please consult with the 
ROHM representative in advance.
