This PNP small signal darlington transistor is designed for use in switching
applications, such as print hammer, relay, solenoid and lamp drivers. The device is
housed in the SOT-223 package which is designed for medium power surface mount
applications.
The SOT-223 Package can be soldered using wave or reflow. The formed
leads absorb thermal stress during soldering, eliminating the possibility of
damage to the die

INFORMATION FOR USING THE SOT-223 SURFACE MOUNT PACKAGE
POWER DISSIPATION
The power dissipation of the SOT-223 is a function of the
pad size. These can vary from the minimum pad size for
soldering to the pad size given for maximum power
dissipation. Power dissipation for a surface mount device is
determined by TJ(max), the maximum rated junction tempera-
ture of the die, RθJA, the thermal resistance from the device
junction to ambient; and the operating temperature, TA.
Using the values provided on the data sheet for the SOT -223
package, PD can be calculated as follows.
PD = TJ(max) – TA
RθJA
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 T A of 25°C, one can
calculate the power dissipation of the device which in this
case is 1.5 watts.
PD = 150°C – 25°C
83.3°C/W = 1.5 watts
The 83.3°C/W for the SOT-223 package assumes the
recommended collector pad area of 965 sq. mils on a glass
epoxy printed circuit board to achieve a power dissipation of
1.5 watts. If space is at a premium, a more realistic
approach is to use the device at a PD of 833 mW using the
footprint shown. Using a board material such as Thermal
Clad, a power dissipation of 1.6 watts can be achieved using
the same footprint.
MOUNTING 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
minimize 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.
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 during
cooling
* Soldering a device without preheating can cause excessive
thermal shock and stress which can result in damage to the
device.
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.

SOLDER STENCIL GUIDELINES
Prior to placing surface mount components onto a printed
circuit board, solder paste must be applied to the pads. A
solder stencil is required to screen the optimum amount of
solder paste onto the footprint. The stencil is made of brass
or stainless steel with a typical thickness of 0.008 inches.
The stencil opening size for the SOT-223 package should be
the same as the pad size on the printed circuit board, i.e., a
1:1 registration.
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
minimize 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.
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 during
cooling
* Soldering a device without preheating can cause excessive
thermal shock and stress which can result in damage to the
device.
TYPICAL SOLDER HEATING PROFILE
For any given circuit board, there will be a group of control
settings that will give the desired heat pattern. The operator
must set temperatures for several heating zones, and a
figure for belt speed. Taken together, these control settings
make up a heating “profile” for that particular circuit board.
On machines controlled by a computer, the computer
remembers these profiles from one operating session to the
next. Figure 7 shows a typical heating profile for use when
soldering a surface mount device to a printed circuit board.
This profile will vary among soldering systems but it is a good
starting point. Factors that can affect the profile include the
type of soldering system in use, density and types of
components on the board, type of solder used, and the type
of board or substrate material being used. This profile shows
temperature versus time. The line on the graph shows the
actual temperature that might be experienced on the surface
of a test board at or near a central solder joint. The two
profiles are based on a high density and a low density board.
The Vitronics SMD310 convection/infrared reflow soldering
system was used to generate this profile. The type of solder
used was 62/36/2 Tin Lead Silver with a melting point
between 177–189°C. When this type of furnace is used for
solder reflow work, the circuit boards and solder joints tend to
heat first. The components on the board are then heated by
conduction. The circuit board, because it has a large surface
area, absorbs the thermal energy more efficiently, then
distributes this energy to the components. Because of this
effect, the main body of a component may be up to 30
degrees cooler than the adjacent solder joints.
