Part Number: OPA2170

Hello,

The OPA2170 datasheet shows a DSG / WSON package.

I don't see it as an orderable package on TI.com.
Is this package option available?

If so, should the thermal pad be connected to Ground?
Or could it be left floating?

Thank you, Keith

Hi Keith,

The thermal pad on all recent op amps should be connected to a plane with the same potential as the V- pin.

Hello Keith,

I will have to get back with you on the first question.

Concerning the 2nd question, please connect the thermal pad to V-.

Keith,

I confirmed with our team today that there were a few delays in the release of the DSG package which have been overcome. The product will release to market in mid/late January.

The TI E2E™ design support forums will undergo maintenance from July 11 to July 13. If you need design support during this time, open a new support request with our customer support center.
