40 V, 100 A N-channel — the conduction-loss floor
The IPB100N04S4H2ATMA1 N-channel MOSFET has a 40 V drain-source voltage and 100 A continuous drain current.
Switching loss and thermal budget
Input capacitance Ciss is 7180 pF typical at 25 V drain-source. The 115 W maximum power dissipation at case temperature 25°C is the thermal ceiling.
Package and mounting — the thermal path
The TO-263-3 (D²Pak) surface-mount package with exposed tab requires a large copper area on the PCB for heat spreading. The supplier device package is PG-TO263-3-2.
