9.4 Mechanical Considerations

  • Do not exceed mechanical mounting recommendations
  • The DMD data sheet defines thermal and electrical interface areas and the maximum load (force) that can be applied to each area. Exceeding the maximum load can damage the DMD
  • When mounting the DMD the loads applied can be controlled by design, or assembly process.
    • Controlled by design is a design where features of the design prevent loads on the DMD that can exceed the maximum. These typically utilizes shoulder screws and a spring element (flat or coil springs)
    • Controlled by assembly is a design that relies on the assembly process to ensure the loads on the DMD are not exceeded. These typically utilize procedures and torque of screws
    • Control by design is the most robust design
