Instructions for Use:

1. Mounting:

   • Ensure the device is mounted on a heatsink if operating at high currents to maintain the junction temperature within the specified range.
   • Use thermal compound between the device and the heatsink to improve heat dissipation.

2. Electrical Connections:

   • Connect the anode (A) and cathode (K) terminals correctly to avoid reverse polarity, which can lead to device failure.
   • Use short and thick wires to minimize inductance and resistance.

3. Surge Current Handling:

   • The device can handle peak surge currents up to 30A for a duration of 10ms. Ensure that any transient conditions do not exceed this limit to prevent damage.

4. Thermal Management:

   • Monitor the junction temperature to ensure it does not exceed 150°C. Excessive temperatures can reduce the lifespan of the device and cause immediate failure.

5. Storage:

   • Store the device in a dry, cool place with temperatures between -65°C and 150°C to prevent degradation.

6. Handling:

   • Handle the device with care to avoid mechanical stress, which can cause internal damage.
   • Use proper ESD (Electrostatic Discharge) protection when handling the device to prevent damage from static electricity.

7. Testing:

   • Before installing the device in a circuit, test it using a diode tester or multimeter to ensure it is functioning correctly.

8. Compliance:

   • Ensure that the device meets all relevant safety and regulatory standards for your application.
