SEMICONDUCTORS
Notes:
1. These values apply bidirectionally for any value of resistance between the gate and Main Terminal
1.
2. This value applies for 50-Hz full-sine-wave operation with resistive load. Above 70°C derate
linearly to 110°C case temperature at the rate of 200 mA/°C.
3. This value applies for one 50-Hz full-sine-wave when the device is operating at (or below) the rated
value of on-state current. Surge may be repeated after the device has returned to original thermal
equilibrium. During the surge, gate control may be lost.
4. This value applies for one 50-Hz half-sine-wave when the device is operating at (or below) the rated
value of on-state current. Surge may be repeated after the device has returned to original thermal
equilibrium. During the surge, gate control may be lost.
5. This value applies for a maximum averaging time of 20 ms.
