Package Design Notes
Electrical contact of the part to the Printed Circuit Board (PCB)
is made by soldering the leads on the bottom surface of the
package to the PCB. Hence, special attention is required to the
heat transfer area below the package to provide a good ther-
mal bond to the circuit board. A Copper (Cu) fill is to be de-
signed into the PCB as a thermal pad under the package. Heat
is transferred from the TX2 through the device’s metal paddle
on the bottom side of the package. Heat from here, is conduct-
ed to the PCB at the thermal pad. It is then conducted from the
thermal pad to the PCB inner ground plane by an array of via.
A via is a plated through hole in the PCB with a finished diam-
eter of 13 mil. The QFN’s metal die paddle must be soldered
to the PCB’s thermal pad. Solder mask is placed on the board
top side over each via to resist solder flow into the via. The
Figure 13-2 is a plot of the solder mask pattern image of the assembly (darker areas indicate solder).

For further information on this package design please refer to
the application note “Surface Mount Assembly of AMKOR’s
MicroLeadFrame (MLF) Technology.” This application note

Note.pdf. The application note provides detailed information
on board mounting guidelines, soldering flow, rework process,
etc.
Figure 13-1 below displays a cross-sectional area underneath
the package. The cross section is of only one via. The solder
paste template needs to be designed to allow at least 50%
solder coverage. The thickness of the solder paste template
should be 5 mil. Cypress recommends that ’No Clean’, type 3
solder paste is used for mounting the part. Nitrogen purge is
recommended during reflow.
