Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use this rectifier for life support systems?
No, these products are not designed for use in life support appliances or systems where malfunction could result in personal injury.
What PCB requirements are needed for mounting the device?
The device should be mounted on an epoxy-glass printed-circuit board with a copper layer of at least 40 μm.
What is the range of peak reverse voltages (RRM) available?
The RRM varies by model, ranging from -200V (BYD31D) up to -1000V (BYD31M).
Are limiting values reliable for continuous operation?
Limiting values are stress ratings only; operating above them or for extended periods may cause permanent damage.
