Exposed Pad PCB Design

The construction of the exposed pad enables enhanced thermal and electrical characteristics. To take full advantage of this feature, the pad must be physically connected to the PCB substrate with solder. The published data for thermal performance, θJA, is based on a four-layer PCB incorporating vias that act as the thermal path to the layers, also known as a JEDEC High K board design per JESD51-7.

The dimensions of the thermal pad on the PCB should be equal to the exposed pad on the QFN and SON. Adequate clearance (CPL) is necessary to prevent solder bridging. Experiments have concluded that a minimum clearance of 0,2 mm is satisfactory for most designs.
