The recommended PCB footprint for SIHD3N50D-GE3 is a TO-252 (D-PAK) package with a minimum pad size of 2.5mm x 2.5mm and a thermal pad size of 3.5mm x 3.5mm.
To ensure reliable soldering, use a soldering iron with a temperature of 250°C to 260°C, and apply a soldering flux that is compatible with the device's lead-free finish. Also, ensure that the PCB is clean and free of oxidation.
The maximum allowed voltage derating for SIHD3N50D-GE3 is 10% of the maximum rated voltage (500V) at an ambient temperature of 150°C. This means the maximum allowed voltage is 450V.
Yes, SIHD3N50D-GE3 is suitable for high-frequency switching applications up to 100 kHz. However, it's essential to consider the device's switching losses, thermal performance, and PCB layout to ensure reliable operation.
To calculate the power dissipation of SIHD3N50D-GE3, use the following formula: Pd = (Vds x Ids) + (Vgs x Igs), where Vds is the drain-source voltage, Ids is the drain-source current, Vgs is the gate-source voltage, and Igs is the gate-source current.
