Handling and Storage:
- Store in a dry environment within the temperature range specified by TSTG.
- Handle with care to avoid damage to leads and body.
Mounting:
- Ensure proper heat sinking if operating near maximum current or temperature limits.
- Use appropriate soldering techniques; excessive heat can damage the device.
Electrical Connections:
- Verify correct polarity before connecting power to prevent damage from reverse voltage.
- Keep lead lengths as short as possible to minimize inductance.
Operation:
- Do not exceed the peak reverse voltage (VRRM) or average rectified current (IO(AV)) ratings.
- Monitor junction temperature (TJ) to ensure it remains within operational limits, especially under high load conditions.
Testing:
- When testing, apply voltages and currents within specified limits to avoid premature failure.
- Use protective equipment and follow safety guidelines when working with high voltages.
