STPS30L60CW datasheet by International Rectifier

STPS30L60CW Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the maximum junction temperature that the STPS30L60CW can withstand?
  The maximum junction temperature of the STPS30L60CW is 175°C, but it's recommended to keep it below 150°C for reliable operation.
• How do I calculate the power dissipation of the STPS30L60CW?
  You can calculate the power dissipation by multiplying the voltage drop across the device (Vd) by the current (Id) and adding the switching losses. The formula is: Pd = Vd * Id + (switching frequency * switching energy).
• What is the recommended gate resistance for the STPS30L60CW?
  The recommended gate resistance for the STPS30L60CW is between 10 ohms and 100 ohms, depending on the specific application and switching frequency.
• Can I use the STPS30L60CW in a parallel configuration?
  Yes, you can use multiple STPS30L60CW devices in parallel to increase the current handling capability, but you need to ensure that the devices are properly matched and the gate signals are synchronized.
• What is the maximum dv/dt rating of the STPS30L60CW?
  The maximum dv/dt rating of the STPS30L60CW is 1000 V/μs, but it's recommended to limit it to 500 V/μs or less to ensure reliable operation.
