Back when hexfets first came out (1981 or so), I was having trouble
with them self-destructing. Back then, at least, if you read far
enough in the fine print, you'd find a maximum drain dv/dt rating.
And the substrate diode made a nice step-recovery diode, making it
possible to generate lethal dv/dt's in totally non-obvious ways!
