TSSOP (Thin Shrink Small Outline Package) is a plastic, SMD IC component package with gull-wing leads.

Synonyms:

  • PWP (PowerPAD) (TI’s name for the HTSSOP variant, independent on pin count)1
  • SOT1171-2 (NXP’s name for the HTSSOP-28)2
  • MO-153 (JEDEC’s name for the HTSSOP-28)2

Pin Count: 8-803

Pitch:

  • 0.50mm3
  • 0.65mm

Solderability: Reflow is most suitable. O.K. to solder by hand by an experienced user. Care must be taken to avoid solder bridges between the legs of the IC.

Common Uses:

  • General ICs
  • H-bridges (the HTSSOP variant)

Body widths of TSSOP packages can be 3.0, 4.4 and 6.1mm3.

HTSSOP

HTSSOP is a variant of the TSSOP with a solder pad on the underside, used by both Texas Instruments and Rohm Semiconductor4 5. It is used for ICs which require good thermal conductivity (e.g. half-bridges, SMPS).

  • RθJAR_{\theta JA}: Junction-to-ambient thermal resistance.
  • RθJBR_{\theta JB}: Junction-to-board thermal resistance.
  • RθJC(top)R_{\theta JC(top)}: Junction-to-case (top) thermal resistance.
  • RθJC(bot)R_{\theta JC(bot)}: Junction-to-case (bottom) thermal resistance.
