The values for the equation are found in the maximum

ratings table on the data sheet. Substituting these values

one can calculate the power dissipation of the device which

in this case is 150 milliwatts.

INFORMATION FOR USING THE SOT−553 SURFACE MOUNT PACKAGE

MINIMUM RECOMMENDED FOOTPRINT FOR SURFACE MOUNTED APPLICATIONS

Surface mount board layout is a critical portion of the

total design. The footprint for the semiconductor packages

must be the correct size to insure proper solder connection

interface between the board and the package. With the

correct pad geometry, the packages will self align when

subjected to a solder reflow process.

The power dissipation of the SOT−553 is a function of

the pad size. This can vary from the minimum pad size for

soldering to a pad size given for maximum power dissipa-

tion. Power dissipation for a surface mount device is deter-

The 833

°C/W for the SOT−553 package assumes the use

of the recommended footprint on a glass epoxy printed

circuit board to achieve a power dissipation of 150 milli-

watts. There are other alternatives to achieving higher

power dissipation from the SOT−553 package. Another

alternative would be to use a ceramic substrate or an

board material such as Thermal Clad, an aluminum core

board, the power dissipation can be doubled using the same

footprint.

SOLDERING PRECAUTIONS

The melting temperature of solder is higher than the

rated temperature of the device. When the entire device is

heated to a high temperature, failure to complete soldering

within a short time could result in device failure. There-

fore, the following items should always be observed in

order to minimize the thermal stress to which the devices

are subjected.

°C or less.*
