Inform one of their sales people that an error in a datasheet is affecting your decision to place a large order, and you'll be amazed how quickly it gets fixed. :) |

There’s a link on the product web pages, too, which includes the parametric data. Analog Devices is the same, the link in the footer is simply titled “document feedback”. Infineon lists a feedback email address on the last page of its datasheets. --- End quote --- Yes, they have email addresses. I like that. |
