Gate charge and switching — sizing the driver
Total gate charge is 110 nC at 10 V gate drive, with an input capacitance of 2430 pF at 25 V drain-source. That 110 nC means the gate driver must supply enough peak current to charge and discharge the gate within the desired dead-time — for a 100 kHz switching frequency, the average gate current is about 11 mA, but the peak current during the Miller plateau determines the switching edge rate and crossover loss.
Thermal headroom — 175°C junction buys you margin
The operating junction temperature range is -55°C to 175°C, which is a full military-grade envelope. That 175°C ceiling gives real margin in motor-drive and power-supply stages where junction spikes above 150°C are routine during overload or high-ambient conditions. The 110 W maximum power dissipation at case temperature assumes an infinite heatsink — actual dissipation depends on the PCB copper area under the D-Pak tab.
Package and footprint — D-Pak tab soldering
The part comes in a D-Pak (TO-252-3) surface-mount package, also designated SC-63, with two leads plus the exposed tab. The ±20 V maximum gate-source rating is standard for logic-level gate drive — the 10 V drive voltage recommended for minimum Rds(on) is well within that window.
Lifecycle and compliance — active production, no EOL worry
It is ROHS3 compliant.
