Forward Biasing:
- Ensure the forward current does not exceed the maximum ratings to avoid damage.
- The typical forward voltage drop is around 0.9 V at 5 mA.
Reverse Biasing:
- The device can withstand up to 30 V in reverse bias without breaking down.
- Ensure the reverse current does not exceed 100 nA at 30 V to prevent overheating.
Temperature Considerations:
- The device operates reliably between -65掳C and 150掳C ambient temperatures.
- Store the device within the same temperature range to maintain its performance.
Capacitance:
- The reverse capacitance is approximately 4 pF at 1 MHz, which should be considered in high-frequency applications.
Power Dissipation:
- The maximum power dissipation is 150 mW. Ensure adequate heat dissipation if operating near this limit.
Handling:
- Handle the device with care to avoid static damage. Use appropriate ESD protection measures.
- Follow standard soldering guidelines to ensure reliable connections.
