Note 1. Ratings apply for open gate conditions. Devices shall not be tested with a constant current source for blocking voltage such that the voltage applied exceeds the rated blocking voltage. Note 2. This device is rated for use in applications subject to high surge conditions. Care must be taken to insure proper heat sinking when the device is to be used at high sustained currents.Electrical Characteristics: (T = +25C and either polarity of MT to MT voltage unless C 1 2 otherwise specified) Parameter Symbol Test Conditions Min Typ Max Unit Peak Forward Blocking Current I V = 800V, T = +25C 10 A DRM DRM J V = 800V, T = +125C 2 mA DRM J Peak Reverse Blocking Current I V = 800V, T = +25C 10 A RRM RRM J V = 800V, T = +125C 2 mA RRM J Peak OnState Voltage V I = 56A (Peak), Note 3 1.40 1.85 V TM TM Gate Trigger Current (Continuous DC) I GT MT (+), G (+) MT (), G () V = 12V, R = 100, 25 50 mA 2 2 D L MT (+), G () 2 MT (), G (+) 40 75 mA 2 Gate Trigger Voltage (Continuous DC) V GT MT (+), G (+) MT (), G () V = 800V, R = 100, 1.1 2.0 V 2 2 D L MT (+), G () 2 MT (), G (+) 1.3 2.5 V 2 Gate NonTrigger Voltage V GD MT (+), G (+) MT (), G () V = 800V, T = +125C, R = 10k, 0.2 V 2 2 D J L MT (+), G () 2 MT (), G (+) 0.2 V 2 Holding Current I V = 12V, Gate Open 30 75 mA H D Gate Controlled TurnOn Time t V = 800V, I = 56A (Peak), 1.5 s gt D TM I = 200mA GT Critical Rate of Rise of Off State dv/dt V = 800V, Exponential Waveform, 50 V/s D Voltage T = +125C C Critical Rate 0f Rise of Commutation dv/dt(c) V = 800V, I = 56A (Peak), 5 V/s D TM Voltage Commutating di/dt = 13.4A/ms, Gate Unenergized, T = +75C C Note 3.
