1. Avalanche failures assumption:
100
ID = 21A
Purely a thermal phenomenon and failure occurs at a temperature far in
excess of Tjmax. This is validated for every part type.
80
2. Safe operation in Avalanche is allowed as long asTjmax is not exceeded.
3. Equation below based on circuit and waveforms shown in Figures 16a, 16b.
4. PD (ave) = Average power dissipation per single avalanche pulse.
60
5. BV = Rated breakdown voltage (1.3 factor accounts for voltage increase
during avalanche).
6. Iav = Allowable avalanche current.
40
7. ∆T = Allowable rise in junction temperature, not to exceed Tjmax (assumed as
25°C in Figure 14, 15).
tav = Average time in avalanche.
20
D = Duty cycle in avalanche = tav ·f
ZthJC(D, tav) = Transient thermal resistance, see Figures 13)
