100 V, 130 A — where the rating limits bite
In a real enclosure at 85°C ambient, derate per the power dissipation ceiling of 300 W at the case; the junction temperature limit of 175°C is the hard stop.
Gate charge and drive budget
Total gate charge is 250 nC at 10 V.
Through-hole package and thermal path
The TO-220-3 (TO-220AB) package is a through-hole mount with a metal tab for heatsink attachment. The 300 W power dissipation rating assumes the tab is bolted to an infinite heatsink — real-world dissipation is limited by the thermal interface and airflow. The -55°C to 175°C junction range covers military-temperature applications; the 4 V threshold at 250 µA is a standard logic-level turn-on, but the drive voltage for minimum Rds(on) is 10 V.
