Does anyone know the differences between the following concepts？

"Average Rectified Output Current" VS “Forward continuous Current”

"Repetitive peak Forward Current" VS "Forward Surge Current"

Thanks!

Hi,

Can you please reach out to the diode manufacturer ? They would help to share more details on the difference and test cases where these parameter are evaluated.
