CSD18540Q5B: thermal vias

Part Number: CSD18540Q5B
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: CSD88584Q5DC, TIDA-010042

Tool/software:

hi 

CSD18540Q5B has a thermal pad on the bottom, but does not have any suggestion about thermal vias. Is this part not recommended to have thermal vias on PCB when mounting?

regards,

  • Hello Ikeno-san,

    Thanks for the inquiry. The attached PDF file includes datasheet images for the CSD88584Q5DC power block in 5x6mm SON and are applicable to the CSD18540Q5B. There is also a screen shot showing an example of via placement from a TI reference design, TIDA-010042 which uses the CSD18540Q5B. Below is a link to an application note on QFN and SON PCB attachment. See section 3.4.1 on page 7 for more details on thermal vias. Please let me know if you have any additional questions.
