VNB20N07-E datasheet by STMicroelectronics

VNB20N07-E Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the maximum operating frequency of the VNB20N07-E?
  The maximum operating frequency of the VNB20N07-E is 100 kHz, but it can be operated at higher frequencies with reduced performance.
• How do I ensure the VNB20N07-E is properly biased for optimal performance?
  To ensure proper biasing, connect the gate to a voltage source through a resistor (e.g., 1 kΩ) and connect the source to ground through a resistor (e.g., 10 kΩ).
• What is the recommended PCB layout for the VNB20N07-E to minimize parasitic inductance?
  Use a compact layout with short leads, keep the drain and source pins close together, and use a ground plane to minimize parasitic inductance.
• How do I protect the VNB20N07-E from overvoltage and overcurrent?
  Use a voltage regulator to limit the voltage, and add a current-sensing resistor and a fuse or a current limiter to protect against overcurrent.
• What is the thermal resistance of the VNB20N07-E, and how do I ensure proper heat dissipation?
  The thermal resistance of the VNB20N07-E is 2.5°C/W. Ensure proper heat dissipation by using a heat sink, thermal interface material, and a sufficient airflow.
