*2 Case temperature (T
C
) and heatsink temperature (T
s
) is measured on the surface (mounting side) of the baseplate and the heatsink side just under the chips.
Refer to the figure on page 1 for chip location. The heatsink thermal resistance should be measured just under the chips.
*3 Junction temperature (T
j
) should not increase beyond maximum junction temperature (T
j(max)
) rating.
*4 Pulse width and repetition rate should be such that device junction temperature (T
j
) does not exceed T
j(max)
rating.
*5 Pulse width and repetition rate should be such as to cause negligible temperature rise.
