Mounting Torque (Note 2) _ 6.0 in. lb.
Maximum Ratings (TJ = 25°C unless otherwise noted)
Stresses exceeding Maximum Ratings may damage the device. Maximum Ratings are stress ratings only. Functional operation above the Recommended Operating Conditions is not implied.
Extended exposure to stresses above the Recommended Operating Conditions may affect device reliability.
1. VDRM and VRRM for all types can be applied on a continuous basis. Ratings apply for zero or negative gate voltage; however, positive gate voltage shall not be applied concurrent with negative
potential on the anode. Blocking voltages shall not be tested with a constant current source such that the voltage ratings of the devices are exceeded.
2. Torque rating applies with use of torque washer (Shakeproof WD19523 or equivalent). Mounting Torque in excess of 6 in. lb. does not appreciably lower case-to-sink thermal resistance.
Main terminal 2 and heat-sink contact pad are common.
