it's hard to see how a few microamps of forward current could cause an increase in reverse leakage current.
yes... agreed... it's 'hard to see' ... it's an obvious typo... and obviously wrong.
since... reverse leakage current (as it is well known... and shown... in data sheets) increases exponentially with temperature... and not small forward current.
Though... if someone in the group can show that "a few uA of forward current [can] cause an increase in reverse leakage current," at least one person is interested.
Such a discovery could cause a revolution in generating topics for scientific research.
Hypotheses for research might be based on the uncharitable interpretations of obvious, and unintentional mistakes, in forum posts and comments... or not.
