switching power supplies, or equivalent, is recommended. For CO , a low impedance ZL type made by Rubycon for switching power supplies, or
equivalent, is recommended. In this case, a 470 μF electrolytic capacitor was connected at 10 mm trace length from the output terminal.

Typical application circuit example
• An input electrolytic capacitor, CIN , of approximately 220 μF should be connected to the input
side of the BR301. If the input voltage is stable, it is not required.
• An output capacitor, CO , either electrolytic of approximately 470 μF or ceramic of
approximately 30 μF should be connected to the output side of the BR301.
• For CIN , a YXF type made by Rubycon for switching power supplies or equivalent is
recommended.
• For CO , either a low impedance ZL type made by Rubycon, or three ceramic capacitors
connected in parallel (GRM31CR71E106KA12 made by Murata), for switching power
supplies or equivalent are recommended.
• Depending on PCB layout, output voltage ripple could be amplified. Please check the output
voltage ripple in the actual application.

OPERATING PRECAUTIONS
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 products, shorts between the product pins, and
wrong connections. In addition, avoid tests exceeded ratings.
Soldering
• When soldering the products, please be sure to minimize the
working time, within the following limits.
• 260 ±5°C
10 ±1 s (Flow, 2 times)
• 350 ±5°C
3.0 ±0.5 s (Soldering iron, 1 time)
At a distance of 3.4 mm from the main body of the products.
Electrostatic Discharge
• When handling the products, the operator must be grounded. To
prevent shock hazard, grounded wrist straps should be used and
at least 1 MΩ of resistance from the operator to ground 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 a 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.

latest revision of the document before use.
• Application and operation examples described in this document are quoted for the sole purpose of reference for the use of the products 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 semiconductor 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 equipment 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 distribution network.
• The contents in this document must not be transcribed or copied without Sanken's written consent.
