Vishay provides a recommended PCB layout and land pattern in their application note AN42171, which can be found on their website. It's essential to follow these guidelines to ensure proper thermal performance and reliability.
The datasheet recommends using a thermal interface material (TIM) with a thermal conductivity of at least 1 W/m-K. Apply a thin, even layer of TIM to the die attach surface, and ensure the TIM is compatible with the device and PCB materials.
While the datasheet specifies the maximum voltage rating, it's essential to derate the voltage based on the operating temperature and other environmental factors. As a general rule, derate the voltage by 1% per 1°C above 25°C to ensure reliable operation.
The IDC5020ER2R2M is not hermetically sealed, so it's not recommended for use in high-humidity environments. If you must operate in a humid environment, consider using a conformal coating or potting the device to protect it from moisture.
Store the IDC5020ER2R2M in its original packaging, away from direct sunlight, moisture, and extreme temperatures. Handle the devices by the edges to prevent damage to the die attach surface, and avoid bending or flexing the leads.
