A thermal pad on the bottom of the component is recommended, with a minimum size of 10mm x 10mm. The PCB should also have a solid ground plane to help dissipate heat.
Use a soldering iron with a temperature of 350°C to 370°C, and apply a small amount of solder paste to the component pads. Avoid applying excessive force or pressure during soldering.
The maximum allowed voltage derating is 80% of the rated voltage, but it's recommended to derate to 70% for optimal reliability and lifespan.
Yes, but it's recommended to apply a conformal coating to protect the component from moisture. The component should also be stored in a dry environment with a relative humidity of 60% or less.
Store the component in a dry environment with a temperature range of -10°C to 30°C and relative humidity of 60% or less. Avoid exposing the component to direct sunlight or moisture.
