This application note describes the basic guidelines for handling power MOSFETs in TO-220 packages. Please note that only mechanical and soldering guidelines are covered here. Additional precautions are required for isolating high voltage rated devices to meet safety regulations.<br /> </ br><br /> </ br><br /> </ br><br /> </ br><br /> </ br><br /> </ br><br /> </ br></p> <p><a href="http://dev.emcelettronica.com/pcb/application_to-220">read more</a></p> http://dev.emcelettronica.com/pcb/application_to-220#comments MOSFETs TO-220 Thu, 24 Jan 2008 16:48:45 +0100 Chris 51602 at http://dev.emcelettronica.com
