1. Avalanche failures assumption:
Purely a thermal phenomenon and failure occurs at a temperature far in
excess of T_jmax. This is validated for every part type.
2. Safe operation in Avalanche is allowed as long asT_jmax is not exceeded.
3. Equation below based on circuit and waveforms shown in Figure 22a, 22b.
4. P_{D (ave)} = Average power dissipation per single avalanche pulse.
5. BV = Rated breakdown voltage (1.3 factor accounts for voltage increase
during avalanche).
6. I_av = Allowable avalanche current.
7. ΔT = Allowable rise in junction temperature, not to exceed T_jmax (assumed as
25°C in Figure 14, 15).
t_{av =} Average time in avalanche.
D = Duty cycle in avalanche = t_av ·f
Z_thJC(D, t_av) = Transient thermal resistance, see Figures 13)
P_{D (ave)} = 1/2 ( 1.3·BV·I_av) = DT/ Z_thJC
I_av = 2DT/ [1.3·BV·Z_th]
E_{AS (AR)} = P_{D (ave)}·t_av
