Notes: 2. Measurement using the gate trigger characteristics measurement circuit.
3. Case temperature is measured on the T2 tab.
4. The contact thermal resistance Rth (c-f) in case of greasing is 1.0°C/W.
5. Test conditions of the critical-rate of rise of off-state commutating voltage is shown in the table below.
6. High sensitivity (IGT ≤ 20 mA) is also available. (IGT item: 1)
