INFORMATION FOR USING THE SC-59 6 LEAD SURFACE MOUNT PACKAGE
MINIMUM RECOMMENDED FOOTPRINT FOR SURFACE MOUNTED APPLICATIONS
Surface mount board layout is a critical portion of the total
design. The footprint for the semiconductor packages must
be the correct size to ensure proper solder connection inter-
face between the board and the package. With the correct
pad geometry, the packages will self-align when subjected to
a solder reflow process.

SC-59 6 LEAD POWER DISSIPATION
The power dissipation of the SC-59 6 Lead is a function of
the 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 TJ(max), the maximum rated junction temperature of the
die, R
JA, the thermal resistance from the device junction to
ambient, and the operating temperature, TA. Using the
values provided on the data sheet for the SC-59 6 Lead
package, PD can be calculated as follows:
PD =
TJ(max) TA
R
JA
The values for the equation are found in the maximum
ratings table on the data sheet. Substituting these values into
the equation for an ambient temperature TA of 25
C, one can
calculate the power dissipation of the device which in this
case is 225 milliwatts.
PD =
150
C 25
C
556
C/W
= 225 milliwatts
The 556
C/W for the SC-59 6 Lead package assumes the
use of the recommended footprint on a glass epoxy printed
circuit board to achieve a power dissipation of 225 milliwatts.
There are other alternatives to achieving higher power
dissipation from the SC-59 6 Lead package. Another alterna-
tive would be to use a ceramic substrate or an aluminum
core board such as Thermal Clad
TM
. Using a board material
such as Thermal Clad, an aluminum core board, the power
dissipation can be doubled using the same footprint.
SOLDER STENCIL GUIDELINES
Prior to placing surface mount components onto a printed
circuit board, solder paste must be applied to the pads.
Solder stencils are used to screen the optimum amount.
These stencils are typically 0.008 inches thick and may be
made of brass or stainless steel. For packages such as the
SC-59, SC-59 6 Lead, SC-70/SOT-323, SOD-123, SOT-23,
SOT-143, SOT-223, SO-8, SO-14, SO-16, and SMB/SMC
diode packages, the stencil opening should be the same as
the pad size or a 1:1 registration.
SOLDERING PRECAUTIONS
The melting temperature of solder is higher than the rated
temperature of the device. When the entire device is heated
to a high temperature, failure to complete soldering within a
short time could result in device failure. Therefore, the
following items should always be observed in order to mini-
mize the thermal stress to which the devices are subjected.
Always preheat the device.
The delta temperature between the preheat and
soldering should be 100
C or less.*
When preheating and soldering, the temperature of the
leads and the case must not exceed the maximum
temperature ratings as shown on the data sheet. When
using infrared heating with the reflow soldering method,
the difference should be a maximum of 10
C.
* Soldering a device without preheating can cause excessive
thermal shock and stress which can result in damage to the
device.
