for all types can be applied on a continuous basis. Blocking voltages shall not be tested with a constant current source such that the voltage ratings of the devices are exceeded.
This device is rated for use in applications subject to high surge conditions. Care must be taken to ensure proper heat sinking when the device is to be used at high sustained currents. (See
