What happens if the Qorvo SiC JFET gate-source voltage is more negative than the minimum specified in the datasheet?
A short undervoltage transient poses very little risk of failure to the Qorvo SiC JFET. Its gate-source diode will avalanche at a voltage well below the specified minimum gate-source voltage in the datasheet. Avalanching the gate-source diode will not cause a failure nor degradation of the Qorvo SiC JFET provided the avalanche energy is sufficiently limited.
