Power MSOP-8 Thermal Characteristics
The power-MSO-8 package follows the same idea as the
power-SO-8 package, using four ground leads with the die
attach paddle to create a single-piece electrical and thermal
conductor, reducing thermal resistance and increasing power
dissipation capability.
The same method of determining the heat sink area used for
the power-SOP-8 can be applied directly to the power-
MSOP-8. The same two curves showing power dissipation
versus copper area are reproduced for the power-MSOP-8
and they can be applied identically.
Quick Method
Determine the power dissipation requirements for the design
along with the maximum ambient temperature at which the
device will be operated. Refer to Figure 12, which shows safe
operating curves for 3 different ambient temperatures, +25°C,
+50°C and +85°C. From these curves, the minimum amount
of copper can be determined by knowing the maximum power
dissipation required. If the maximum ambient temperature is
+25°C and the power dissipation is 1W, the curve in Figure
12v shows that the required area of copper is 500mm²,when
using the power MSOP-8
