Instructions for Use:

1. Mounting:

   • Ensure proper heat sinking to maintain the junction temperature below 150°C.
   • Use appropriate mounting hardware and torque specifications to avoid mechanical stress.

2. Electrical Connections:

   • Connect the anode and cathode terminals correctly to avoid reverse polarity, which can lead to device failure.
   • Use wire gauges and connections that can handle the maximum current ratings.

3. Thermal Management:

   • Monitor the operating temperature to ensure it stays within the specified range.
   • Consider forced air cooling or other cooling methods if operating near the maximum temperature.

4. Surge Current Handling:

   • The device is rated for a non-repetitive peak forward surge current of 150A. Ensure that any surge currents do not exceed this value to prevent damage.

5. Reverse Voltage:

   • Do not exceed the maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage of 350V to avoid breakdown and potential failure.

6. Storage:

   • Store the device in a dry environment within the storage temperature range of -55°C to 150°C to prevent degradation.

7. Handling:

   • Handle with care to avoid mechanical damage. Use ESD (Electrostatic Discharge) protection to prevent damage from static electricity.

8. Testing:

   • Perform regular testing to ensure the device is functioning within its specified parameters. Use appropriate test equipment and procedures.
