ExposedPad™ LQFP / TQFP

Exposedpad LQFP / TQFP IC PackageThis Amkor-developed family of power IC packages significantly increases the thermal efficiency of power constrained standard LQFP and TQFP packages. The ExposedPad LQFP / TQFP can increase heat dissipation by as much as 110% over a standard LQFP / TQFP, thereby expanding the margin of operating parameters. Additionally, the ExposedPad can be connected to ground, thereby reducing loop inductance for high frequency applications. The ExposedPad should be soldered directly to the PCB to realize the thermal and electrical benefits. 3D packaging with die stack process are also provided in this package for MCP solution.

Applications:

Increased end-application densities and shrinking product sizes demand more from IC packages. ExposedPad LQFP / TQFPs give designers the needed margin for designing and producing high performing products such as telecom, magnetic / optical disk drives, pagers, wireless, CATV / RF modules, LCD / flat panel TVs, radio and other similar applications. GaAs and hi-speed silicon technologies work especially well in ExposedPad LQFP / TQFP packages due to added shielding and grounding capabilities.

Features:

Amkor’s ExposedPad QFP / TQFP IC package portfolio provides:

  • 5 x 5 mm to 28 x 28 mm body size
  • 32 to 256 lead counts
  • Broad selection of die pad sizes
  • Double down-set ground bond ring pad
  • Copper leadframes
  • 1.0 mm body thickness for TQFP
  • 1.4 mm body thickness for LQFP
  • Custom leadframe design available
  • ExposedPad is easily inverted for heat sink attach
  • Low Profile - < 1.2 mm max mounted height
  • Electrical - Very low loop inductance with use of paddle as ground path, more pins available for signal and allows for operating frquencies of up to 2.4 GHz
