1.Avalanche failures assumption:
Purely a thermal phenomenon and failure occurs at a temperature far
in excess of Tjmax. This is validated for every part type.
2.Safe operation in Avalanche is allowed as long as Tjmax is not exceed
ed.
3.Equation below based on circuit and waveforms shown in Figures
17a, 17b.
4. PD (ave) = Average power dissipation per single avalanche pulse.
5. BV = Rated breakdown voltage (1.3 factor accounts for voltage in
crease during avalanche).
6. Iav = Allowable avalanche current.
7T = Allowable rise in junction temperature, not to exceed Tjmax
(assumed as 25°C in Figure 13, 14).
tav = Average time in avalanche.
D = Duty cycle in avalanche = tav ·f
ZthJC(D, tav) = Transient thermal resistance, see Figures 12)
PD (ave) = 1/2 ( 1.3·BV·Iav) = T/ ZthJC
Iav = 2T/ [1.3·BV·Zth]
EAS (AR) = PD (ave)·tav
