LM8333: Thermal Pad

Part Number: LM8333

Hi,

Could you please let me know WQFN package?

Does the package has thermal pad? And should customer connect it to GND? or can it leave open?

Regards,
Nagata.

  • Hello Nagata-san,

    Yes, the QFN package option has a thermal pad as shown in the mechanical drawings.  The pad does not make a direct electrical connection to the internal die, so it is acceptable to either connect the pad to the PCB GND or to leave it floating.

    Regards,
