Notice: This is not a final specification.
Some parametric limits are subject to change.
Note 1. Main current condition of GCT Thyristor is 1500Arms, duty = 0.5, f = 500Hz.
2. If GU-E40 and FGC3500AX-120DS are used together, Rth(j-f) becomes 0.012K/W.
(Only FGC3500AX-120DS is used, Rth(j-f) becomes 0.011K/W)
