ST-4ETB102 - Nidec Copal

ST-4ETB102 Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the recommended PCB layout for optimal thermal performance?
  The recommended PCB layout for optimal thermal performance involves placing the device on a thermal land with a minimum size of 10mm x 10mm, and ensuring that the thermal land is connected to a solid ground plane to dissipate heat efficiently.
• How do I ensure reliable operation in high-vibration environments?
  To ensure reliable operation in high-vibration environments, it is recommended to use a secure mounting method such as screwing or adhesive bonding, and to ensure that the PCB is properly secured to the chassis or enclosure.
• What is the maximum allowable torque for the screw terminals?
  The maximum allowable torque for the screw terminals is 0.5 N·m (5 kgf·cm). Exceeding this torque may damage the terminals or the device.
• Can I use this device in a humid or wet environment?
  The ST-4ETB102 is not designed for use in humid or wet environments. It is recommended to use a conformal coating or potting compound to protect the device from moisture if it will be used in such an environment.
• What is the recommended wire size and type for the screw terminals?
  The recommended wire size for the screw terminals is AWG 18-24, and the recommended wire type is a stranded copper wire with a temperature rating of at least 105°C.
