RATING
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 50°C derate linearly to 110°C case temperature at
the rate of 625 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 peak reverse voltage
and on-state current. Surge may be repeated after the device has returned to original thermal equilibrium.
