OPERATING PRECAUTIONS
In the case that you use Sanken products or design your products by using Sanken products, the reliability largely
depends on the degree of derating to be made to the rated values. Derating may be interpreted as a case that an operation
range is set by derating the load from each rated value or surge voltage or noise is considered for derating in order to
assure or improve the reliability. In general, derating factors include electric stresses such as electric voltage, electric
current, electric power etc., environmental stresses such as ambient temperature, humidity etc. and thermal stress caused
due to self-heating of semiconductor products. For these stresses, instantaneous values, maximum values and minimum
values must be taken into consideration. In addition, it should be noted that since power devices or IC’s including power
devices have large self-heating value, the degree of derating of junction temperature affects the reliability significantly.
Because reliability can be affected adversely by improper storage environments and handling methods, please
observe the following cautions.
Cautions for Storage
 Ensure that storage conditions comply with the standard temperature (5 to 35°C) and the standard relative humidity
(around 40 to 75%); avoid storage locations that experience extreme changes in temperature or humidity.
 Avoid locations where dust or harmful gases are present and avoid direct sunlight.
 Reinspect for rust on leads and solderability of the products that have been stored for a long time.
Cautions for Testing and Handling
When tests are carried out during inspection testing and other standard test periods, protect the products from power
surges from the testing device, shorts between the product pins, and wrong connections. Ensure all test parameters are
within the ratings specified by Sanken for the products.
Remarks About Using Thermal Silicone Grease
 When thermal silicone grease is used, it shall be applied evenly and thinly. If more silicone grease than required is
applied, it may produce excess stress.
 The thermal silicone grease that has been stored for a long period of time may cause cracks of the greases, and it
cause low radiation performance. In addition, the old grease may cause cracks in the resin mold when screwing the
products to a heatsink.
 Fully consider preventing foreign materials from entering into the thermal silicone grease. When foreign material
is immixed, radiation performance may be degraded or an insulation failure may occur due to a damaged insulating
plate.
 The thermal silicone greases that are recommended for the resin molded semiconductor should be used.
Our recommended thermal silicone grease is the following, and equivalent of these.

Soldering
When soldering the products, please be sure to minimize the working time, within the following limits:
・Reflow
Preheat ; 180 °C / 90 ± 30 s
Solder heating ; 250 °C / 10 ± 1s (260 °C peak, 2 times)
・Soldering iron ; 380 ± 10 °C / 3.5 ± 0.5s (1 time)
Electrostatic Discharge
 When handling the products, the operator must be grounded. Grounded wrist straps worn should have at least 1MΩ
of resistance from the operator to ground to prevent shock hazard, and it should be placed near the operator.
 Workbenches where the products are handled should be grounded and be provided with conductive table and floor
mats.
 When using measuring equipment such as a curve tracer, the equipment should be grounded.
 When soldering the products, the head of soldering irons or the solder bath must be grounded in order to prevent
leak voltages generated by them from being applied to the products.
 The products should always be stored and transported in Sanken shipping containers or conductive containers, or
be wrapped in aluminum foil.
