OUTPUT-
The data inputs and outputs are the MAX3845’s most
critical paths, and great care should be taken to mini-
mize discontinuities on these transmission lines
between the connector and the IC. Here are some sug-
gestions for maximizing the performance of the
MAX3845:
For more information, refer to the schematic and board
layers of the Maxim evaluation kit, MAX3845EVKIT .
The exposed pad on the 100-pin TQFP-EP provides a
very low thermal resistance path for heat removal from
the IC. The pad is also electrical ground on the
MAX3845 and must be soldered to the circuit board
ground for proper thermal and electrical performance.

Considerations of QFN and Other Exposed-Paddle
Packages for additional information.
Because the MAX3845 is a high-power device, it is
important to ensure that good heat dissipation is incor-
porated into the PCB design. The device’s temperature-
sense pin (TEMP) allows estimation of the junction
temperature to be made while the MAX3845 is operat-
ing. This information can be used to determine if the
PCB layout is dissipating heat properly.
