Instructions:

1. Handling and Storage:

   • Store in a dry, cool place away from direct sunlight.
   • Handle with care to avoid damage to the leads and body.
   • Use proper ESD (Electrostatic Discharge) protection when handling.

2. Mounting:

   • Ensure the mounting surface is clean and flat.
   • Apply a thin layer of thermal compound to improve heat dissipation.
   • Tighten the mounting screw to the recommended torque value (typically 1.5 to 2.5 Nm).

3. Soldering:

   • Preheat the PCB to 100°C to 120°C before soldering.
   • Use a soldering iron with a temperature setting between 300°C to 350°C.
   • Solder each lead for no more than 3 seconds.
   • Allow the component to cool naturally after soldering.

4. Testing:

   • Perform initial testing at low power to ensure proper installation.
   • Check for any short circuits or incorrect connections.
   • Verify the operating temperature does not exceed the maximum rating.

5. Operational Considerations:

   • Ensure adequate cooling (heatsink or fan) to maintain the operating temperature within the specified range.
   • Monitor the current and voltage levels to prevent overloading.
   • Use appropriate gate drive circuitry to ensure reliable switching.

6. Disposal:

   • Follow local regulations for the disposal of electronic components.
   • Recycle or dispose of the component in an environmentally friendly manner.
