STD60N55F3 datasheet by STMicroelectronics

STD60N55F3 Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the maximum operating frequency of the STD60N55F3?
  The maximum operating frequency of the STD60N55F3 is 100 kHz, but it can be operated at higher frequencies with reduced performance.
• How do I ensure the STD60N55F3 is properly biased for optimal performance?
  To ensure proper biasing, the gate-source voltage (Vgs) should be between 2V and 5V, and the drain-source voltage (Vds) should be between 10V and 55V. Additionally, the gate current should be limited to 100 mA.
• What is the maximum power dissipation of the STD60N55F3?
  The maximum power dissipation of the STD60N55F3 is 150 W, but this can be increased with proper heat sinking and thermal management.
• How do I protect the STD60N55F3 from overvoltage and overcurrent?
  To protect the STD60N55F3 from overvoltage and overcurrent, use a voltage regulator to limit the voltage to 55V or less, and add current limiting resistors or fuses to prevent excessive current.
• What is the safe operating area (SOA) of the STD60N55F3?
  The safe operating area (SOA) of the STD60N55F3 is defined by the maximum voltage and current ratings, as well as the thermal limitations. Refer to the datasheet for specific SOA curves.
