Note 1. Ratings apply for zero or negative gate voltage. Devices shall not have a positive bias ap-
plied to the gate concurrently with a negative potential on the anode. Devices should not
be tested with a constant current source for forward or reverse blocking capability such that
the voltage applied exceeds the rated blocking voltage.

Note 2. Torque rating applies with the use of a compression washer. Mounting torque in excess of
6 in. lb. does not appreciably lower case–to–sink thermal resistance. Anode lead and heat-
sink contact pad are common.
