PD = TJ(max) – TA
RθJA
PD = 150°C – 25°C
833°C/W = 150 milliwatts
The soldering temperature and time should not
exceed 260°C for more than 10 seconds.
When shifting from preheating to soldering, the
maximum temperature gradient should be 5°C or less.
After soldering has been completed, the device
should be allowed to cool naturally for at least three
minutes. Gradual cooling should be used as the use of
forced cooling will increase the temperature gradient
and result in latent failure due to mechanical stress.
Mechanical stress or shock should not be applied dur-
ing cooling
* Soldering a device without preheating can cause exces-
sive thermal shock and stress which can result in damage
to the device.
INFORMATION FOR USING THE SC–70/SOT–323 SURFACE MOUNT PACKAGE
MINIMUM RECOMMENDED FOOTPRINT FOR SURFACE MOUNTED APPLICATIONS
Surface mount board layout is a critical portion of the to-
tal design. The footprint for the semiconductor packages
must be the correct size to insure proper solder connection
SC–70/SOT–323 POWER DISSIPATION
The power dissipation of the SC–70/SOT–323 is a func-
tion of the pad size. This can vary from the minimum pad
size for soldering to the pad size given for maximum pow-
er dissipation. Power dissipation for a surface mount de-
vice is determined by TJ(max), the maximum rated junction
temperature of the die, RθJA, the thermal resistance from
the device junction to ambient; and the operating tempera-
ture, TA. Using the values provided on the data sheet, PD
can be calculated as follows.
The values for the equation are found in the maximum
ratings table on the data sheet. Substituting these values
into the equation for an ambient temperature TA of 25°C,
one can calculate the power dissipation of the device
which in this case is 150 milliwatts.
The 833°C/W assumes the use of the recommended
footprint on a glass epoxy printed circuit board to achieve
a power dissipation of 150 milliwatts. Another alternative
would be to use a ceramic substrate or an aluminum core
board such as Thermal Clad. Using a board material
such as Thermal Clad, a higher power dissipation can be
achieved using the same footprint.
interface between the board and the package. With the
correct pad geometry, the packages will self align when
subjected to a solder reflow process.
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. Therefore, the
following items should always be observed in order to mini-
mize the thermal stress to which the devices are subjected.
Always preheat the device.
The delta temperature between the preheat and
soldering should be 100°C or less.*
When preheating and soldering, the temperature of the
leads and the case must not exceed the maximum
temperature ratings as shown on the data sheet. When
using infrared heating with the reflow soldering
method, the difference should be a maximum of 10°C.
