0.8 A to 4 A devices also have a pulse peak forward current on-
state rating (repetitive) of 75 A. This rating applies for operation at 
60 Hz, 75 °C maximum tab (or anode) lead temperature, switching 
from 80 V peak, sinusoidal current pulse width of 10 μs minimum, 
15 μs maximum. See Figure E5.20 and Figure E5.21.
