NOTES:

(1)

RMA flux is recommended. Solder dwell time can be increased to 10 seconds when flow soldering.

(2)

Threshold Current is based on the two line intersection method specified in Telcordia GR-468-Core. Line 1 from 4 mA to 6 mA. Line 2 from 0 mA to 0.5 mA.

(3)

Series Resistance is the slope of the Voltage-Current line from 5 to 8 mA.

(4)

Slope efficiency, is the slope of the best fit LI line from 5 mA to 8 mA with 0.25mA test intervals.
