Printing History

The current edition of this guide is indicated below. Reprints of this guide containing minor corrections and updates may have the same printing date. New editions are identified by a new printing date and, in some cases, by a new part number. A new edition incorporates all new or corrected material since the previous edition. Changes to the guide occurring between editions are covered by change sheets shipped with this guide. Also, if the serial number prefix of your power module is higher than those listed on the title page of this guide, then it may or may not include a change sheet. That is because even though the higher serial prefix indicates a design change, that change may not affect the content of the guide.
