Measurement Note:
For these specifications, resistance measurement shall be made at a point on the leads 0.2" (5 mm) from the package.

Mounting Note:
Mount on a smooth, clean and flat heat sink surface with a thermal interface material, such as thermal grease. The entire exposed heat dissipating mounting surface (ceramic or metal) must be in contact with the heat sink. When screw mounting, use a compression washer which provides a mounting force of 150 to 300 pounds (665 to 1330 N). This will provide sufficient pressure on the package over time and through large temperature variations to maintain the maximum power dissipation capability. Maximum mounting torque to avoid package damage is 8 in.-lbs (0.9 N-m). If a spring clip is used, a clip force of 8 to 30 pounds (35 to 130 N) is recommended to be applied to the center of the package. The clip should be round or smooth in the contact area to avoid concentrating the load on a small point of the plastic body. Another mounting option is to use a pressure bar method, which can achieve a greater mounting force with greater contact area.
