7.4.1.2 Regulator Mounting

The tab of the SOT223-6 package is electrically connected to ground. For best thermal performance, the tab of the surface-mount version should be soldered directly to a circuit-board copper area. Increasing the copper area improves heat dissipation.

Solder pad footprint recommendations for the devices are presented in the Solder Pad Recommendations for Surface-Mount Devices application note, available from the TI web site (www.ti.com).
