40 V, 100 A N-channel in a DPAK — what the key ratings mean
The IPD100N04S402ATMA1: Junction temperature range extends to 175°C, which gives headroom in high-ambient environments — engine bay electronics, enclosed industrial power supplies, or motor drives with restricted airflow. The 4 V threshold maximum at 95 µA drain current is a standard logic-level threshold; the part needs a 10 V drive to achieve the rated Rds(on).
Package and mounting — PG-TO252-3-313
The PG-TO252-3-313 package is a standard DPAK (TO-252) with two leads and a tab. The tab is the drain connection and the primary thermal path — the 150 W dissipation rating assumes the tab is soldered to a sufficient copper area on the PCB.
Lifecycle and compliance — active, no LTB concern
The IPD100N04S402ATMA1 carries an active product status with ROHS3 compliance. No end-of-life notification or last-time-buy window has been announced.
