Extended exposure to stresses above the Recommended Operating Conditions may affect device reliability. 1. V and V 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 DRM RRM 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.
