SYMBOLS & DEFINITIONS
Definition
Forward Current: The forward current dc value, no alternating component.
Maximum Forward Surge Current: The forward current, surge peak or rated forward surge current.
Average Rectified Output Current: Output current averaged over a full cycle with a 50 Hz or 60 Hz sine-wave input and
a 180 degree conduction angle.
Junction Temperature: The temperature of a semiconductor junction.
Maximum Forward Voltage: The maximum forward voltage the device will exhibit at a specified current.
Working Peak Reverse Voltage: The maximum peak voltage that can be applied over the operating temperature
range.
