SLA5041

Overview

The SLA5041 is a general-purpose N-channel power MOSFET manufactured by Sanken Electric USA Inc. It features a drain-source voltage rating of 200 V and a continuous drain current capacity of ±10 A at 25°C. The device exhibits a maximum on-resistance (RDS(ON)) of 175 mΩ when driven with a gate-source voltage of 10 V. Key switching parameters include a turn-on delay time of 20 ns and a fall time of 70 ns under standard test conditions. The component is housed in a 12-pin SLA package, providing an isolation voltage of 1000 Vrms between the fin and lead pins.

Feature Summary

• High-voltage capability suitable for demanding power conversion applications
• Low on-state resistance to minimize conduction losses
• Fast switching characteristics for efficient high-frequency operation

Applications

• General purpose power switching circuits
• DC-DC converter topologies
• Motor drive output stages

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against the manufacturer's official documentation to ensure correct pinout and thermal specifications. Confirm that the requested quantity aligns with the distributor's standard packaging requirements. Check for RoHS compliance status if environmental regulations apply to your assembly process.

Selection Notes

Evaluate the thermal resistance from junction to case (3.13 °C/W) to determine necessary heatsinking for your target operating temperature. Ensure the gate drive voltage meets the minimum threshold for optimal RDS(ON) performance. Consider the pulsed drain current limit of 40 A for transient load conditions.

Part Context

This component belongs to Sanken Electric's discrete power semiconductor portfolio. It is designed as a standalone switching element rather than an integrated driver IC. The SLA package facilitates direct mounting to chassis or heat sinks for effective thermal management in industrial equipment.

Replacement Considerations

Consult the datasheet note indicating this part is not recommended for new designs. Identify alternative N-channel MOSFETs with comparable 200V ratings and similar RDS(ON) values from current production lines.
