SBOS908A November 2017 – December 2017 OPA2333P
PRODUCTION DATA.
Pay attention to good layout practices. Keep traces short and when possible and use a printed-circuit-board (PCB) ground plane with surface-mount components placed as close to the device pins as possible. Place a 0.1-μF capacitor closely across the supply pins. Apply these guidelines throughout the analog circuit to improve performance and provide benefits, such as reducing the electromagnetic interference (EMI) susceptibility.
Operational amplifiers vary in susceptibility to radio frequency interference (RFI). RFI can generally be identified as a variation in offset voltage or DC signal levels with changes in the interfering RF signal. The OPA2333P is specifically designed to minimize susceptibility to RFI and demonstrates remarkably low sensitivity compared to previous generation devices. Strong RF fields may still cause varying offset levels.
Solder the exposed leadframe die pad on the WSON package to a thermal pad on the PCB. A mechanical drawing showing an example layout is attached at the end of this data sheet. Refinements to this layout may be necessary based on assembly process requirements. Mechanical drawings located at the end of this data sheet list the physical dimensions for the package and pad. The five holes in the landing pattern are optional, and are intended for use with thermal vias that connect the leadframe die pad to the heatsink area on the PCB.
Soldering the exposed pad significantly improves board-level reliability during temperature cycling, key push, package shear, and similar board-level tests. Even with applications that have low-power dissipation, the exposed pad must be soldered to the PCB to provide structural integrity and long-term reliability.
