pcb - Do QFNs really need that thermal pad? - Electrical Engineering Stack Exchange
By A Mystery Man Writer
Description
Often a chip will be available in several different packages. Sometimes QFN which has a thermal pad, and TQFP which has no thermal pad. The justification for the thermal pad is that it helps conduc
