Maximum collector current 60A at 25C. I don't see any condition, taking =a reasonable guess at Vce(sat) at max Tj, where this could possibly =dissipate anywhere near the power rating of 339W (also at Tc =3D 25C). =In fact, the typical output characteristics show it should be closer to =Vcesat =3D 3V, Ic =3D 120A, Vg =3D 15V. So why pick 60A?More BS? What's the real rating? Buy from someone else? Ha, no one =else even has honest ratings...Tim--=20Deep Friar: a very philosophical monk.Website:

That's achievable, without a lot ofswitching losses or water-cooled diamond heat sinks. The 339 watts isabsurd.Looks like everybody has to keep up with IR. They should add to "Absmax ratings" MAXIMUM LIES 12 typJohn

oscillation.

Not correlated; "component shortage" variations are randumb (pun intended).

From what i have seen component shortage is on a shorter cycle by in large.
