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. ## **Electrical Characteristics - OFF (TJ = 25°C unless otherwise noted ; Electricals apply in both directions)** **==> picture [505 x 45] intentionally omitted <==** **----- Start of picture text -----**
