The BYW95C can operate safely between -40°C to 150°C, but the recommended operating temperature range is -40°C to 125°C for optimal performance.
To ensure proper biasing, connect the anode to a voltage source through a current-limiting resistor, and connect the cathode to a voltage source through a current-limiting resistor or a Zener diode. Consult the datasheet for specific biasing configurations.
Store the BYW95C in a dry, cool place, away from direct sunlight and moisture. Handle the device by the body, avoiding touching the leads or glass envelope to prevent electrical discharge or contamination.
Yes, the BYW95C can be used in switching power supply applications, but ensure the device is properly biased and the circuit is designed to handle the high-frequency switching and voltage stresses.
Use a voltage limiter or a transient voltage suppressor (TVS) to protect the BYW95C from EOS. Additionally, ensure the device is properly biased and the circuit is designed to handle voltage transients and spikes.
