Junction temperature and derating
The IPP60R170CFD7XKSA1: The 75 W maximum power dissipation at case temperature requires a heatsink sized for the actual duty cycle; the 14 A current rating derates above 25 °C case temperature per the datasheet's normalised curve.
Package and mounting
Housed in a PG-TO220-3 through-hole package — the standard three-lead power outline with a metal tab for heatsink attachment. The through-hole mount suits point-of-load and bulk power stages where mechanical retention and thermal transfer to a heatsink are preferred over surface-mount reflow.
