Mounting and Thermal Considerations:
It is very important that adequate heat sinking be provided
to avoid exceeding the maximum device junction
temperature. All of the following suggestions should be
followed to ensure maximum operating life of the device:
1. Use 2 ounce copper if possible.
2. Use a large ground pad area with many plated through-
holes (solder filling is recommended).
3. Multiple filled vias are required directly below the SOT-
89 ground tab.
4. Solder the copper pad on the backside of the device
package to the ground plane.
5. Use three point board seating with 2-56 machine
screws (no more than 0.2 inch from the device) to provide
a low thermal resistance path to the plate. The thermal
resistance from ground lead to screws is 2 deg. C/W
6. We recommend thermal transfer paste be used
between the board and the mounting plate.
Part Symbolization
