Gate charge and switching — what 96 nC means for the driver
The NP74N04YUG-E1-AY: Total gate charge is 96 nC at 10 V. The 5430 pF input capacitance at 25 V drain-source gives the Miller plateau charge time.
175 °C junction — thermal headroom for tight enclosures
Rated for a maximum junction temperature of 175 °C, this part suits applications where the ambient inside the enclosure runs above 85 °C — engine bay electronics, industrial motor drives, or power supplies with limited airflow. The 1 W ambient power dissipation limit (Ta) means the package relies on the PCB copper pour for heat spreading; the 120 W case rating (Tc) is achievable only with the exposed pad soldered to a thermal land with vias to an internal plane.
