MOUNTING INSTRUCTIONS The device may dissipate several watts of power. It is important to provide a good heat sink to dissipate the heat. There are two options of mounting the device, as shown below. The most effective way is to mount the device to a heat sink pedestal (Option 1). We strongly recommend this way for high power device. The other option, which is mounted directly on PCB, is to add sufficient number of plated through via holes to the PCB. The base of the device is soldered to the PCB (Option 2). The via hole wall should be plated by at least 1 oz thick (1. mil) of high thermal conductivity copper to conduct the heat from the top of PCB to the bottom of PCB. Also fill the via holes with solder to help conducting the heat. Option 1 for Straight Leads (Recommended) Option 2 for Bent Leads.2.7 R.16 R.
