Instructions for Use:

1. Mounting and Handling:

   • Ensure proper heat sinking to maintain the junction temperature within the specified range.
   • Handle the device with care to avoid damage to the leads and the body.

2. Electrical Connections:

   • Connect the drain (D) to the high voltage side of the circuit.
   • Connect the source (S) to the low voltage side or ground.
   • Apply the gate (G) signal to control the switching of the device.

3. Operating Conditions:

   • Do not exceed the maximum ratings for breakdown voltage, drain current, and power dissipation.
   • Ensure that the gate threshold voltage is met to properly turn on the device.

4. Thermal Management:

   • Use appropriate thermal management techniques to keep the junction temperature below the maximum rating.
   • Consider using a heatsink or forced air cooling for continuous operation at high currents.

5. Pulse Operation:

   • For pulse applications, ensure that the peak pulse current does not exceed the specified limit and that the duty cycle is within the allowed range.

6. Storage:

   • Store the device in a dry, cool environment within the specified storage temperature range.

7. Safety Precautions:

   • Always follow safe handling practices to avoid electrical shock.
   • Use appropriate protective equipment when working with high voltages and currents.

8. Testing:

   • Test the device under controlled conditions to ensure it meets the required specifications before integrating it into the final application.
