FAQ
In applications switching above 50kHz, the GDM100N60L offers significantly lower switching losses compared to equivalent IGBT solutions. This results in higher overall system efficiency, especially in high-frequency power conversion applications. The module's low RDS(on) also contributes to reduced conduction losses, making it ideal for applications where efficiency is critical.
The module should be mounted on an adequate heatsink with thermal resistance below 1.0°C/W for reliable operation. For high-power applications, consider forced air or liquid cooling. The junction-to-case thermal resistance is 0.5°C/W. Proper PCB design with wide copper areas and thermal vias is also important for effective heat dissipation.
Yes, the GDM100N60L is designed for easy paralleling. Its positive temperature coefficient of RDS(on) provides natural current sharing between paralleled devices. For optimal performance, ensure symmetrical PCB layout and matched gate drive circuits. Current balancing of ±10% is typically achievable with proper design.
