Figure 5-1 through Figure 5-4 show the board layout for theLM5169FQEVM.
The 8-pin SO PowerPAD™ package offers an exposed thermal pad, which must be soldered to the copper landing on the PCB for optimal thermal performance. The PCB consists of a 4-layer design. There are 2-oz copper planes on the top and bottom and 1-oz copper mid-layer planes to dissipate heat with an array of thermal vias under the thermal pad to connect to all four layers.
