Frequently Asked Questions
What is the maximum continuous reverse voltage (V_R) for one diode?
The repetitive peak reverse voltage (V_RRM) is specified as max. 85 V, and the V continuous reverse voltage (V_R) is -75 V.
What is the difference between forward current limits when loaded double versus single diode?
When loaded double, the continuous forward current limit is -125 mA; when single diode loaded, it is -215 mA.
What conditions affect thermal resistance (R_th)?
The thermal resistance from junction to ambient (θj-a) depends on whether the device is mounted on an FR4 printed-circuit board.
