TMP461-SP: footprint recommendation

Part Number: TMP461-SP


Tool/software:

Hello,

In the TMP461HKU/EM datasheet I can only find the mechanical package dimensions. Could you please provide the recommended PCB footprint or detailed dimensions for footprint creation?

Best regards,

  • Hello Szymon,

    All package information is on page 34 of the datasheet. Are you looking for a land pattern? Outside of the dimensions of the package (which is in the datasheet), the land pattern for the pins is lacking information. Typically we direct customers to Fancort and Spirt Electronics for land patterns. These third parties offers lead forming services. Texas Instruments uses the services of sub-contractors Fancort and Spirit Electronics to derive and implement the desired trim and form profiles which in turn determines the PCB footprints. Typically, the customer has specific requests for lead forming for the pins. We simply can't specify lead form as many customers have their own requirements and specifications.

    CAD footprints are below:
