6.4.2 ABCD Coefficients
The on-state characteristic I
used for rating purposes and (ii) a set of constants A, B, C, D, forming the coefficients of the
representative equation for V
The constants, derived by curve fitting software, are given in this report for both hot and cold
characteristics where possible. The resulting values for V
limited current range which is generally that over which the curve is plotted.
