## **Notes** 

- Sinusoidal voltage assumed as normal operating condition. If a non-sinusoidal voltage is present, the crest voltage x 0.707 should be used for type selection. 

- Breakdown voltage at a current of 1 mA, measured according to 4.5 of IEC 61051-1. 

- Parts are not recommended for automotive applications.
