The TO-247 package is preferred for commercial-industrial applications
where higher power levels preclude the use of TO-220 devices. The TO-247
is similar but superior to the earlier TO-218 package because of its isolated
mounting hole. It also provides greater creepage oisiance between pins tc
meet the requirements of most safety specifications.
