Notes:
(1)For pulse time duration deratings, please refer to Figure 3. More details regarding the avalanche energy
measurements and diode validation in the avalanche are provided in the STMicroelectronics Application notes
AN1768, “Admissible avalanche power of Schottky diodes” and AN2025, “Converter improvement using Schottky
rectifier avalanche specification”.
