design. The footprint for the semiconductor packages must be
the correct size to insure proper solder connection interface
drain pad size. This can vary from the minimum pad size for
soldering to a pad size given for maximum power dissipation.
Power dissipation for a surface mount device is determined by
T J(max) , the maximum rated junction temperature of the die,
R JA , the thermal resistance from the device junction to
ambient, and the operating temperature, T A . Using the values
provided on the data sheet for the SOT–223 package, P D can
be calculated as follows:
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 800 milliwatts.
of the recommended footprint on a glass epoxy printed circuit
board to achieve a power dissipation of 800 milliwatts. There
are other alternatives to achieving higher power dissipation
from the SOT–223 package. One is to increase the area of the
drain pad. By increasing the area of the drain pad, the power

dissipation can be increased. Although one can almost double
the power dissipation with this method, one will be giving up
area on the printed circuit board which can defeat the purpose
of using surface mount technology. A graph of R JA versus
drain pad area is shown in Figure 17.

board material such as Thermal Clad, an aluminum core
board, the power dissipation can be doubled using the same
footprint.
