* The power dissipation PD is based on TJ(max.) = 150 °C, using junction-to-case thermal resistance, and is more useful in settling the upper
dissipation limit for cases where additional heatsinking is used. It is used to determine the current rating, when this rating falls below the package
limit.

PowerPAK® SO-8 Mounting and Thermal Considerations
Wharton McDaniel
MOSFETs for switching applications are now available
with die on resistances around 1 mΩ and with the
capability to handle 85 A. While these die capabilities
represent a major advance over what was available
just a few years ago, it is important for power MOSFET
packaging technology to keep pace. It should be obvious that degradation of a high performance die by the
package is undesirable. PowerPAK is a new package
technology that addresses these issues. In this application note, PowerPAK’s construction is described.
Following this mounting information is presented
including land patterns and soldering profiles for maximum reliability. Finally, thermal and electrical performance is discussed.
THE PowerPAK PACKAGE
The PowerPAK package was developed around the
SO-8 package (Figure 1). The PowerPAK SO-8 utilizes the same footprint and the same pin-outs as the
standard SO-8. This allows PowerPAK to be substituted directly for a standard SO-8 package. Being a
leadless package, PowerPAK SO-8 utilizes the entire
SO-8 footprint, freeing space normally occupied by the
leads, and thus allowing it to hold a larger die than a
standard SO-8. In fact, this larger die is slightly larger
than a full sized DPAK die. The bottom of the die attach
pad is exposed for the purpose of providing a direct,
low resistance thermal path to the substrate the device
is mounted on. Finally, the package height is lower
than the standard SO-8, making it an excellent choice
for applications with space constraints.
PowerPAK SO-8 SINGLE MOUNTING
The PowerPAK single is simple to use. The pin
arrangement (drain, source, gate pins) and the pin
dimensions are the same as standard SO-8 devices
(see Figure 2). Therefore, the PowerPAK connection
pads match directly to those of the SO-8. The only difference is the extended drain connection area. To take
immediate advantage of the PowerPAK SO-8 single
devices, they can be mounted to existing SO-8 land
patterns.
Standard SO-8
PowerPAK SO-8
Figure 2.
The minimum land pattern recommended to take full
advantage of the PowerPAK thermal performance see
Application Note 826, Recommended Minimum Pad
Patterns With Outline Drawing Access for Vishay Siliconix MOSFETs. Click on the PowerPAK SO-8 single
in the index of this document.
In this figure, the drain land pattern is given to make full
contact to the drain pad on the PowerPAK package.
This land pattern can be extended to the left, right, and
top of the drawn pattern. This extension will serve to
increase the heat dissipation by decreasing the thermal resistance from the foot of the PowerPAK to the
PC board and therefore to the ambient. Note that
increasing the drain land area beyond a certain point
will yield little decrease in foot-to-board and foot-toambient thermal resistance. Under specific conditions
of board configuration, copper weight and layer stack,
experiments have found that more than about 0.25 to
0.5 in2 of additional copper (in addition to the drain
land) will yield little improvement in thermal performance.

PowerPAK SO-8 DUAL
The pin arrangement (drain, source, gate pins) and the
pin dimensions of the PowerPAK SO-8 dual are the
same as standard SO-8 dual devices. Therefore, the
PowerPAK device connection pads match directly to
those of the SO-8. As in the single-channel package,
the only exception is the extended drain connection
area. Manufacturers can likewise take immediate
advantage of the PowerPAK SO-8 dual devices by
mounting them to existing SO-8 dual land patterns.
For the lead (Pb)-free solder profile, see http://
www.vishay.com/doc?73257.
To take the advantage of the dual PowerPAK SO-8’s
thermal performance, the minimum recommended
land pattern can be found in Application Note 826,
Recommended Minimum Pad Patterns With Outline
Drawing Access for Vishay Siliconix MOSFETs. Click
on the PowerPAK 1212-8 dual in the index of this document.
The gap between the two drain pads is 24 mils. This
matches the spacing of the two drain pads on the PowerPAK SO-8 dual package.
REFLOW SOLDERING
Vishay Siliconix surface-mount packages meet solder
reflow reliability requirements. Devices are subjected
to solder reflow as a test preconditioning and are then
reliability-tested using temperature cycle, bias humidity, HAST, or pressure pot. The solder reflow temperature profile used, and the temperatures and time
duration, are shown in Figures 3 and 4.

THERMAL PERFORMANCE
Introduction
A basic measure of a device’s thermal performance is
the junction-to-case thermal resistance, Rθjc, or the
junction-to-foot thermal resistance, Rθjf. This parameter
is measured for the device mounted to an infinite heat
sink and is therefore a characterization of the device
only, in other words, independent of the properties of the
object to which the device is mounted. Table 1 shows a
comparison of the DPAK, PowerPAK SO-8, and standard SO-8. The PowerPAK has thermal performance
equivalent to the DPAK, while having an order of magnitude better thermal performance over the SO-8.

Thermal Performance on Standard SO-8 Pad Pattern
Because of the common footprint, a PowerPAK SO-8
can be mounted on an existing standard SO-8 pad pattern. The question then arises as to the thermal performance of the PowerPAK device under these conditions.
A characterization was made comparing a standard SO-8
and a PowerPAK device on a board with a trough cut out
underneath the PowerPAK drain pad. This configuration
restricted the heat flow to the SO-8 land pads. The
results are shown in Figure 5.
Because of the presence of the trough, this result suggests a minimum performance improvement of 10 °C/W
by using a PowerPAK SO-8 in a standard SO-8 PC
board mount.
The only concern when mounting a PowerPAK on a
standard SO-8 pad pattern is that there should be no
traces running between the body of the MOSFET.
Where the standard SO-8 body is spaced away from the
pc board, allowing traces to run underneath, the PowerPAK sits directly on the pc board.
Thermal Performance - Spreading Copper
Designers may add additional copper, spreading copper, to the drain pad to aid in conducting heat from a
device. It is helpful to have some information about the
thermal performance for a given area of spreading copper.
Figure 6 shows the thermal resistance of a PowerPAK
SO-8 device mounted on a 2-in. 2-in., four-layer FR-4
PC board. The two internal layers and the backside layer
are solid copper. The internal layers were chosen as
solid copper to model the large power and ground
planes common in many applications. The top layer was
cut back to a smaller area and at each step junction-toambient thermal resistance measurements were taken.
The results indicate that an area above 0.3 to 0.4 square
inches of spreading copper gives no additional thermal
performance improvement. A subsequent experiment
was run where the copper on the back-side was
reduced, first to 50 % in stripes to mimic circuit traces,
and then totally removed. No significant effect was
observed.

SYSTEM AND ELECTRICAL IMPACT OF
PowerPAK SO-8
In any design, one must take into account the change in
MOSFET rDS(on) with temperature (Figure 7).

ID = 23 A
Suppose each device is dissipating 2.7 W. Using the
junction-to-foot thermal resistance characteristics of the
PowerPAK SO-8 and the standard SO-8, the die temperature is determined to be 107 °C for the PowerPAK
(and for DPAK) and 148 °C for the standard SO-8. This
is a 2 °C rise above the board temperature for the PowerPAK and a 43 °C rise for the standard SO-8. Referring
to Figure 7, a 2 °C difference has minimal effect on
rDS(on) whereas a 43C difference has a significant effect
on rDS(on).
Minimizing the thermal rise above the board temperature by using PowerPAK has not only eased the thermal
design but it has allowed the device to run cooler, keep
rDS(on) low, and permits the device to handle more current than the same MOSFET die in the standard SO-8
package.

Figure 7. MOSFET rDS(on) vs. Temperature
A MOSFET generates internal heat due to the current
passing through the channel. This self-heating raises
the junction temperature of the device above that of the
PC board to which it is mounted, causing increased
power dissipation in the device. A major source of this
problem lies in the large values of the junction-to-foot
thermal resistance of the SO-8 package.
PowerPAK SO-8 minimizes the junction-to-board thermal resistance to where the MOSFET die temperature is
very close to the temperature of the PC board. Consider
two devices mounted on a PC board heated to 105 °C
by other components on the board (Figure 8).

CONCLUSIONS
PowerPAK SO-8 has been shown to have the same
thermal performance as the DPAK package while having the same footprint as the standard SO-8 package.
The PowerPAK SO-8 can hold larger die approximately
equal in size to the maximum that the DPAK can accommodate implying no sacrifice in performance because of
package limitations.
Recommended PowerPAK SO-8 land patterns are provided to aid in PC board layout for designs using this
new package.
Thermal considerations have indicated that significant
advantages can be gained by using PowerPAK SO-8
devices in designs where the PC board was laid out for
the standard SO-8. Applications experimental data gave
thermal performance data showing minimum and typical
thermal performance in a SO-8 environment, plus information on the optimum thermal performance obtainable
including spreading copper. This further emphasized the
DPAK equivalency.
PowerPAK SO-8 therefore has the desired small size
characteristics of the SO-8 combined with the attractive
thermal characteristics of the DPAK package.
