Application Hints
HEATSINKING TO-263 AND SOT-223 PACKAGE PARTS
Both the TO-263 (“S”) and SOT-223 (“MP”) packages use a
copper plane on the PCB and the PCB itself as a heatsink.
To optimize the heat sinking ability of the plane and PCB,
solder the tab of the plane.
shows for the TO-263 the measured values of θ
different copper area sizes using a typical PCB with 1 ounce
copper and no solder mask over the copper area used for
heatsinking.
As shown in the figure, increasing the copper area beyond 1
square inch produces very little improvement. It should also
be observed that the minimum value of θ
package mounted to a PCB is 32˚C/W.
As a design aid, Figure 5 shows the maximum allowable
power dissipation compared to ambient temperature for the
TO-263 device (assuming θ
mum junction temperature is 125˚C).

Figures 6, 7 show the information for the SOT-223 package.

perature of 125˚C.
Please see AN-1028 for power enhancement techniques to
be used with the SOT-223 package.
