Doc. No. 5SYA1208-02 March 05 page 8 of 9 5SGA 40L4501 Fig. 19 Outline drawing; all dimensions are in millimeters and represent nominal values unless stated otherwise Reverse avalanche capability In operation with an antiparallel freewheeling diode, the GTO reverse voltage VR may exceed the rate value VRRM due to stray inductance and diode turn-on voltage spike at high di/dt. The GTO is then driven into reverse avalanche. This condition is not dangerous for the GTO provided avalanche time and current are below 10 s and 1000 A respectively. However, gate voltage must remain negative during this time. Recommendation : VGR = 10... 15 V.
