Mechanical Data
SOCS096 – JULY 2010
The package for the TC246 consists of a ceramic base, a glass window, and a 24-pin lead frame. The glass
window is hermetically sealed to the package. The package leads are configured in a dual-in-line arrangement
and fit into mounting holes with 1,78 mm center-to-center spacing.
CAUTION
The TC246 glass window is very weak for the mechanical internal stress. Be careful
when attaching an external heat sink to the package. Fastening it too strongly may
crack or puncture the package, making it susceptible to moisture or humidity.
Recommended conditions are:
1. Torque control for the screw (M1.6 micro screw) should be under 0.5 kgf*cm.
2. Paste "Lock Tight" on the screw. Recommendation is Three Bond 1401B.
3. As for the soldering condition, do not exceed 80ºC for the package temperature. Since a
reflow or solder dip may cause glass lid crack or fracture, the grounded soldering iron shall
be used and the operation shall be less than 2 seconds per pin.
