(1) Measured in a single phase halfwave circuit such as shown in Figure 6.25 of EIA RS–282, November 1963. Operated at rated load conditions
TL = 80°C, IO = 3.0 A, Vr = VRWM.
Preferred devices are Motorola recommended choices for future use and best overall value.
Ratings at 25°C ambient temperature unless otherwise specified.
60 Hz resistive or inductive loads.
For capacitive load, derate current by 20%.
