Bourns provides a recommended PCB layout and land pattern in their application notes and design guides. It's essential to follow these guidelines to ensure optimal performance, low thermal resistance, and minimal electromagnetic interference (EMI).
Bourns recommends following the JEDEC J-STD-020 standard for soldering temperature and profile. The recommended peak temperature is 260°C, with a maximum time above 217°C of 30 seconds. It's crucial to follow these guidelines to prevent damage to the component.
The TC33X-2-201E has an operating temperature range of -40°C to 150°C. However, it's essential to note that the component's performance and reliability may degrade if operated at the extreme ends of this range for extended periods.
Bourns recommends handling the component by the body, avoiding touching the leads or electrical contacts. Store the component in a dry, cool place, away from direct sunlight and moisture. It's also essential to follow proper electrostatic discharge (ESD) precautions when handling the component.
The TC33X-2-201E has a thermal resistance of 2.5°C/W. To ensure optimal thermal performance, it's essential to provide adequate heat sinking, such as a thermal pad or heat sink, and ensure good airflow around the component.
