Instructions for Use:

1. Mounting: Ensure that the diode is mounted with sufficient clearance from other components to avoid overheating. Use appropriate heat sinks if necessary.
2. Polarity: Observe the correct polarity when installing the diode. The cathode (positive lead) is typically marked with a band or a different color.
3. Current Limiting: Use a current-limiting resistor to prevent exceeding the maximum current rating (Izm).
4. Temperature Considerations: Operate within the specified temperature range to ensure reliable performance.
5. Surge Handling: The diode can handle non-repetitive surge currents up to 1.5A, but avoid frequent exposure to such conditions to prevent damage.
6. Soldering: Use a low-temperature soldering iron and avoid excessive heat during soldering to prevent damage to the diode.
7. Storage: Store in a dry, cool place to prevent moisture damage.
