Gate drive and switching — what the numbers mean
The gate charge is specified at 64 nC maximum with a 5 V gate-source swing. That is a moderate charge — a typical gate driver with 1 A peak output can switch this FET in the tens of nanoseconds range. Input capacitance (Ciss) is 2300 pF at 25 V drain-source. This is a moderate value; the switching node capacitance will not dominate the turn-on delay in most hard-switching converters below 200 kHz.
Thermal and package — mounting the TO-220
Maximum power dissipation is 150 W at case temperature, with a maximum junction temperature of 175°C. The TO-220-3 package (also listed as supplier device package TO-220) is a standard through-hole tabbed package — the metal tab is the drain connection and must be electrically isolated or heatsinked accordingly. The 175°C Tj(max) gives headroom for high-current operation with a properly sized heatsink.
It is ROHS3 compliant.
