Thermal Considerations. For reliable operation, it is
recommended that the maximum junction temperature be
kept below 110 C to 125 C. The junction temperature can
be measured best by attaching a thermocouple to the
power tab/batwing of the device and measuring the tab
temperature, T

improved by 20 to 30% by adding a section of printed
circuit board copper (typically 6 to 18 square centimeters)
connected to the batwing terminals of the device.
high load currents and/or high duty cycles can be im-
proved by adding external diodes from each output to
ground in parallel with the internal diodes. Fast-recovery
( 200 ns) diodes should be used to minimize switching
losses.

To minimize the effect of system ground IR drops on the
logic and reference input signals the system ground should
have a low-resistance return to the load supply voltage.
