APPLICATION NOTE Macronix 150mil 8-SOP and 6x5mm 8-WSON Dual Layout 1. Introduction Macronix uses the 6x5mm 8-WSON and 150mil 8-SOP packages in many of its serial flash in densities ranging from 512Kb to 128Mb. To accommodate multiple packages or densities of flash on the same PCB (Printed Circuit Board) some applications may consider using a “dual layout”. The Macronix MX25L8006E 8Mb serial flash will be used in this application note as a vehicle to discuss the creation of a dual PCB footprint layout. Macronix provides the MX25L8006E in a variety of packages: 150mil 8-SOP, 209mil 8-SOP, 300mil 8-PDIP, 4x4mm 8-USON and 6x5mm 8-WSON. Because the 150mil 8-SOP and 6x5mm 8-WSON packages both have the same pin definitions, and are roughly the same size, we will create a “dual layout” PCB footprint using these two package types. This document may be used as a general reference guideline by any designer needing a layout that will support the 150mil 8-SOP and 6x5mm 8-WSON packages. 2. Package Dimension Comparison Although both packages have similar footprints and package sizes, the designer doing a dual layout needs to provide clearance for the larger package and adjust the PCB pad size to provide sufficient pad metal for soldering either package type. Table 2-1 compares package outline and pin dimensions for the 150mil 8-SOP and 6x5mm 8-WSON.

The designer needs to consider package size, pad position, and PCB pad size during PCB layout.

PCB Layout Recommendation Conceptually, the steps required to determine the final “dual layout” PCB footprint are trivial. We only need to determine the minimum footprint required for each package individually, and then simply create a composite using the image of the two footprints. A breakdown of the steps follows. First, determine the minimum required PCB footprint for each package. The minimum size is targeted so as to reduce the final PCB size and cost. If the solder pad size for each package is not readily available, the package and lead dimensions can be used to calculate the PCB solder pad sizes. The package dimensions can be found in the Package Information section of the Macronix datasheet. As a rough guideline, use the “worst case” or “maximum/minimum” values where applicable in your calculation, rather than “nominal” values. For example, we used maximum lead lengths instead of nominal to ensure pad sizes can accommodate all package size variations. To improve mechanical strength between the package and the PCB, in the example which follows, the solder pads were extended 0.35mm beyond the toe of each lead. This was done so that the solder joint is larger and the solder is able to wick up the toe of the lead, not just contact the bottom. Now all that remains is to merge the two solder pad footprints created into one final composite pad layout diagram, similar to the one shown in Figure 3-1. In our specific example of the Macronix MX25L8006E 150mil 8-SOP and 6x5mm 8-WSON dual layout, a 6.9mm x 5.1mm layout area is used with pad lengths of 1.15mm to accommodate both packages in the same PCB footprint.

Summary The Macronix MX25L8006E 8Mb serial flash was used to create a dual PCB footprint layout which could be used to mount either the 150mil 8-SOP or the 6x5mm 8-WSON package. These packages are used for not only the Macronix 8Mb serial flash, but for many of the other densities of serial flash as well.
