Although there are many ways to properly heatsink this device, the following steps illustrate the recommended

approach.

Thermal pad area (68 mils x 70 mils) with 5 vias

(Via diameter = 13 mils)

™ PCB Etch and Via Pattern

Prepare the PCB with a top-side etch pattern as shown in Figure 55. There should be etch for the leads as

well as etch for the thermal pad.

Place five holes in the area of the thermal pad. These holes should be 13 mils in diameter. They are kept

small so that solder wicking through the holes is not a problem during reflow.

Additional vias may be placed anywhere along the thermal plane outside of the thermal pad area. This helps

dissipate the heat generated by the THS403xDGN IC. These additional vias may be larger than the 13-mil

diameter vias directly under the thermal pad. They can be larger because they are not in the thermal pad

area to be soldered so that wicking is not a problem.

Connect all holes to the internal ground plane.

When connecting these holes to the ground plane,

do not use the typical web or spoke via connection

methodology. Web connections have a high thermal-resistance connection that is useful for slowing the

heat transfer during soldering operations. This makes the soldering of vias that have plane connections

easier. In this application, however, low thermal resistance is desired for the most efficient heat transfer.

Therefore, the holes under the THS403xDGN package should connect to the internal ground plane with a

complete connection around the entire circumference of the plated-through hole.

The top-side solder mask should leave the terminals of the package and the thermal pad area with its five

holes exposed. The bottom-side solder mask should cover the five holes of the thermal pad area, which

prevents solder from being pulled away from the thermal pad area during the reflow process.

Apply solder paste to the exposed thermal pad area and to all the IC terminals.

With these preparatory steps in place, the THS403xDGN IC is simply placed in position and run through

the solder reflow operation as any standard surface-mount component. This results in a part that is properly

installed.
