for AC power control, providing reliable, uniform switching
for full-cycle AC applications.
In comparison with other products on the market, the TMA16x
series provides increased isolation voltage (1800 VACRMS),
guaranteed for up to 1 minute, and greater peak nonrepetitive
off-state voltage, VDSM (700 V). In addition, commutation
dv/dt and (dv/dt)c are improved.

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°C 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 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 adjacent products, and
shorts to the heatsink.
Remarks About Using Silicone Grease with a Heatsink
When silicone grease is used in mounting this product on a
heatsink, it shall be applied evenly and thinly. If more silicone
grease than required is applied, it may produce stress.
Coat the back surface of the product and both surfaces of the
insulating plate to improve heat transfer between the product and
the heatsink.
Volatile-type silicone greases may permeate the product and
produce cracks after long periods of time, resulting in reduced
heat radiation effect, and possibly shortening the lifetime of the
product.
Our recommended silicone greases for heat radiation purposes,
which will not cause any adverse effect on the product life, are
indicated below:
Type Suppliers
G746 Shin-Etsu Chemical Co., Ltd.
YG6260 Momentive Performance Materials Inc.
SC102 Dow Corning Toray Silicone Co., Ltd.
Heatsink Mounting Method
Torque When Tightening Mounting Screws. Thermal resistance
increases when tightening torque is low, and radiation effects are
decreased. When the torque is too high, the screw can strip, the
heatsink can be deformed, and distortion can arise in the product frame.
To avoid these problems, observe the recommended tightening torques
for this product package type 0.490 to 0.686 N•m (5 to 7 kgf•cm).
For effective heat transfer, the contact area between the product and
the heatsink should be free from burrs and metal fragments, and the
heatsink should be flat and large enough to contact over the entire side
of the product, including mounting flange and exposed thermal pad.
The mounting hole in customer-supplied heatsink must be less than
Ø4 mm; this includes the diameter of any dimple around punched holes.
This is to prevent possible deflection and cracking of the product case
when fastened to the heatsink.
Soldering
When soldering the products, please be sure to minimize the
working time, within the following limits:
260±5°C 10 s
350±5°C 3 s
Soldering iron should be at a distance of at least 1.5 mm from the
body of the products
Electrostatic Discharge
When handling the products, operator must be grounded.
Grounded wrist straps worn should have at least 1 MΩ of
resistance to ground to prevent shock hazard.
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 other to prevent leak voltages
generated by them from being applied to the products.
The products should always be stored and transported in our
shipping containers or conductive containers, or be wrapped in
aluminum foil.

• Application and operation examples described in this document are quoted for the sole purpose of reference for the use of the prod-
ucts herein and Sanken can assume no responsibility for any infringement of industrial property rights, intellectual property rights or
any other rights of Sanken or any third party which may result from its use.
• Although Sanken undertakes to enhance the quality and reliability of its products, the occurrence of failure and defect of semicon-
ductor products at a certain rate is inevitable. Users of Sanken products are requested to take, at their own risk, preventative measures
including safety design of the equipment or systems against any possible injury, death, fires or damages to the society due to device
failure or malfunction.
• Sanken products listed in this document are designed and intended for the use as components in general purpose electronic equip-
ment or apparatus (home appliances, office equipment, telecommunication equipment, measuring equipment, etc.).
When considering the use of Sanken products in the applications where higher reliability is required (transportation equipment and
its control systems, traffic signal control systems or equipment, fire/crime alarm systems, various safety devices, etc.), and whenever
long life expectancy is required even in general purpose electronic equipment or apparatus, please contact your nearest Sanken sales
representative to discuss, prior to the use of the products herein.
The use of Sanken products without the written consent of Sanken in the applications where extremely high reliability is required
(aerospace equipment, nuclear power control systems, life support systems, etc.) is strictly prohibited.
• 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.
• When using the products specified herein by either (i) combining other products or materials therewith or (ii) physically, chemically
or otherwise processing or treating the products, please duly consider all possible risks that may result from all such uses in advance
and proceed therewith at your own responsibility.
• Anti radioactive ray design is not considered for the products listed herein.
• Sanken assumes no responsibility for any troubles, such as dropping products caused during transportation out of Sanken's distribu-
tion network.
