Layout
The printed circuit board should use a heavy ground-
plane for optimum thermal performance. The A3908
must be soldered directly onto the board. On the
underside of the A3908 package is an exposed pad,
which provides a path for enhanced thermal dissipa-
tion. The thermal pad should be soldered directly to an
exposed surface on the PCB. Thermal vias are used to
transfer heat to other layers of the PCB. Thermal vias
should not have any thermal relief and should be con-

Grounding
bounce and offset issues, it is important to have a
low impedance, single-point ground, known as a star
ground, located very close to the device. By making
the connection between the exposed thermal pad and
the groundplane directly under the A3908, that area
becomes an ideal location for a star ground point. A
low impedance ground will prevent ground bounce
