HEATSINKING TO-263 PACKAGE
The TO-263 package uses the copper plane on the PCB as
a heatsink. The tab of these packages are soldered to the
copper plane for heat sinking.

the copper area for heat sinking.
As shown in the figure, increasing the copper area beyond 1
square inch produces very little improvement. The minimum
