The maximum operating temperature range for the IRFP260MPBF is -55°C to 175°C.
To ensure proper cooling, a heat sink with a thermal resistance of less than 1°C/W is recommended. Additionally, ensure good airflow around the device and avoid blocking the heat sink fins.
The maximum voltage rating for the IRFP260MPBF is 500V.
Use a voltage regulator or a voltage clamp to prevent overvoltage. Implement overcurrent protection using a fuse or a current-sensing resistor with a comparator.
The recommended gate drive voltage for the IRFP260MPBF is between 10V and 15V.
