To determine maximum junction temperature of the diode in a given situation the following procedure is recommended:
The temperature of the case should be measured using a thermocouple placed on the case at the temperature reference
point. The thermal mass connected to the case is normally large enough so that it will not significantly respond to heat
surges generated in the diode as a result of pulsed operation once steady state conditions are achieved. Using the
measured value of T
C
the junction temperature may be determined by: T

As the frequency of the input signal is increased, the reverse
recovery time of the diode (figure 9) becomes significant,
resulting in an increasing ac voltage component across R
L
which is opposite in polarity to the forward current, thereby
reducing the value of the efficiency factor,
σ,
as shown in
figure 10.
It should be emphasized that figure 10 shows waveform
efficiency only; it does not provide a measure of diode
losses. Data was obtained by measuring the ac component of
V
O
with a true rms ac voltmeter and the dc component with
a dc voltmeter. The data was used in Equation 1 to obtain
points for figure 10
