APPLICATION INFORMATION

general PowerPAD design considerations

The TLC07x is available in a thermally-enhanced PowerPAD family of packages. These packages are

constructed using a downset leadframe upon which the die is mounted [see Figure 52(a) and Figure 52(b)]. This

arrangement results in the lead frame being exposed as a thermal pad on the underside of the package [see

Figure 52(c)]. Because this thermal pad has direct thermal contact with the die, excellent thermal performance

can be achieved by providing a good thermal path away from the thermal pad.

The PowerPAD package allows for both assembly and thermal management in one manufacturing operation.

During the surface-mount solder operation (when the leads are being soldered), the thermal pad must be

soldered to a copper area underneath the package. Through the use of thermal paths within this copper area,

heat can be conducted away from the package into either a ground plane or other heat dissipating device.

Soldering the PowerPAD to the PCB is always required, even with applications that have low-power dissipation.

This provides the necessary thermal and mechanical connection between the lead frame die pad and the PCB.

The PowerPAD package represents a breakthrough in combining the small area and ease of assembly of

surface mount with mechanical methods of heatsinking.
