- B. The power dissipation P D is based on T J(MAX)=150 ° C, using ≤ 10s junction-to-ambient thermal resistance.
- C. Repetitive rating, pulse width limited by junction temperature T J(MAX)=150 ° C. Ratings are based on low frequency and duty cycles to keep initialT J=25 ° C.
- D. The R q JA is the sum of the thermal impedence from junction to lead R q JL and lead to ambient.
- E. The static characteristics in Figures 1 to 6 are obtained using <300 m s pulses, duty cycle 0.5% max.
- F. These curves are based on the junction-to-ambient thermal impedence which is measured with the device mounted on 1in 2 FR-4 board with 2oz. Copper, assuming a maximum junction temperature of T J(MAX)=150 ° C. The SOA curve provides a single pulse rating.
