Stresses exceeding Maximum Ratings may damage the device. Maximum
Ratings are stress ratings only. Functional operation above the Recommended
Operating Conditions is not implied. Extended exposure to stresses above the
Recommended Operating Conditions may affect device reliability.
1. VDRM and VRRM for all types can be applied on a continuous basis. Blocking
voltages shall not be tested with a constant current source such that the
voltage ratings of the devices are exceeded.
