Note 1. These ratings are limiting values above which the serviceability of any semiconductor device
may be impaired.
Note 2. These ratings are based on a maximum junction temperature of +150 degrees C.
Note 3. These are steady state limits. The factory should be consulted on applications involving
pulsed or low duty cycle. operations.
