Hi, I have a question regarding the typical diode characteristics on
datasheets from major manufacturers. Most contain characteristics such
as average rectified forward current (If), peak repetitive reverse
voltage, peak reverse voltage, forward surge current, repetitive surge
current, etc...However, I rarely see the conditions under which these
are obtained. For example, take the average rectified forward current
- what waveform is this an average of? what is the difference between
peak reverse voltage and reverse breakdown voltage, if any? I have
lots of other clarifications I am looking for, but I'll limit my
inquiry to these for now.
Thanks!
