SK24A datasheet by Taiwan Semiconductor

SK24A Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the recommended PCB layout for optimal thermal performance?
  A 2-layer or 4-layer PCB with a solid ground plane and thermal vias is recommended. Keep the component away from heat sources and ensure good airflow.
• How do I ensure reliable operation at high temperatures?
  Use a heat sink with a thermal interface material, ensure good airflow, and consider using a thermal pad or thermal tape to improve heat dissipation.
• What is the maximum allowed voltage on the input pins?
  The maximum allowed voltage on the input pins is 5.5V, but it's recommended to keep it below 5V to ensure reliable operation.
• How do I handle ESD protection for the SK24A?
  Use ESD protection devices such as TVS diodes or ESD arrays on the input lines, and ensure that the PCB design includes ESD protection features like guard rings and ESD-safe layout.
• What is the recommended operating frequency range for the SK24A?
  The recommended operating frequency range for the SK24A is 100 kHz to 1 MHz, but it can operate up to 2 MHz with reduced performance.
