15.0 PCB Layout Recommendations
The following recommendations should be followed to ensure
reliable high-performance operation.
Document 38-08033 Rev. *D
• At least a four-layer impedance controlled board is required
• Specify impedance targets (ask your board vendor what
• To control impedance, maintain uniform trace widths and
• To minimize reflected signals, minimize the number of stubs.
• Connections between the USB connector shell and signal
• Use bypass/flyback capacitors on VBus near the connector.
• DPLUS and DMINUS trace lengths should be kept to within
• Maintain a solid ground plane under the DPLUS and DMI-
• For a more stable design, do not place vias on the DPLUS
• Isolate the DPLUS and DMINUS traces from all other signal

16.0 Quad Flat Package No Leads (QFN)
Electrical contact of the part to the Printed Circuit Board (PCB)
is made by soldering the leads on the bottom surface of the
package to the PCB. Hence, special attention is required to the
heat transfer area below the package to provide a good
thermal bond to the circuit board. A Copper (Cu) fill is to be
designed into the PCB as a thermal pad under the package.
Heat is transferred from the AT2LP through the device’s metal
paddle on the bottom side of the package. Heat from here is
conducted to the PCB at the thermal pad. It is then conducted
from the thermal pad to the PCB inner ground plane by a 5 x
5 array of vias. A via is a plated through-hole in the PCB with
a finished diameter of 13 mil. The QFN’s metal die paddle must
be soldered to the PCB’s thermal pad. Solder mask is placed
on the board top side over each via to resist solder flow into
the via. The mask on the top side also minimizes outgassing
during the solder reflow process.
For further information on this package design please refer to
the application note Surface Mount Assembly of AMKOR’s
MicroLeadFrame (MLF) Technology. The application note
provides detailed information on board mounting guidelines,
soldering flow, rework process, etc.
Figure 16-1 displays a cross-sectional area underneath the
package. The cross section is of only one via. The solder paste
template needs to be designed to allow at least 50% solder
coverage. The thickness of the solder paste template should
be 5 mil. It is recommended that “No Clean,” type 3 solder
paste is used for mounting the part. Nitrogen purge is recom-
mended during reflow.
Figure 16-2 is a plot of the solder mask pattern and Figure 16-
3 displays an X-Ray image of the assembly (darker areas
indicate solder.)
