Procurement Notes

Verify component authenticity through authorized Microchip Technology distributors or certified supply chain partners. Confirm that the specific ordering suffix matches the required package and thermal specifications. Ensure all handling procedures account for electrostatic discharge sensitivity as outlined in application note APT0502. Validate RoHS compliance status against current regulatory requirements before integration into final assemblies.

Selection Notes

Select this module for applications requiring high-frequency operation up to 100 kHz with symmetrical design characteristics. Consider the positive temperature coefficient of VCEsat when designing parallel configurations to ensure balanced current sharing. Evaluate the thermal resistance values against the expected heat dissipation requirements to maintain junction temperatures within the specified operating range of -40°C to 150°C.
