THERMAL CONSIDERATIONS
Thermal considerations are important power supply design facts that cannot be avoided in the real world.
Whenever there are power losses in a system, the heat that is generated needs to be accounted for. Intel’s
Enpirion PowerSoCTM helps alleviate some of those concerns.
Intel’s Enpirion EN5319QI DC-DC converter is packaged in a 4x6x1.1mm 24-pin QFN package. The QFN
package is constructed with exposed thermal pads on the bottom of the package. The exposed thermal pad
should be soldered directly on to a copper ground pad on the printed circuit board (PCB) to act as a heat sink.
The recommended maximum junction temperature for continuous operation is 125°C. Continuous operation
above 125°C may reduce long-term reliability. The device has a thermal overload protection circuit designed
to turn off the device at an approximate junction temperature value of 150°C.
The EN5319QI is guaranteed to support the full 1.5A output current up to 85°C ambient temperature. The
following example and calculations illustrate the thermal performance of the EN5319QI.
Example:
VIN = 5V
VOUT = 3.3V
IOUT = 1.5A
First calculate the output power.
POUT = 3.3V x 1.5A = 4.95W
Next, determine the input power based on the efficiency (η) shown in Figure 7.

For VIN = 5V, VOUT = 3.3V at 1.5A, η ≈ 94%
η = POUT / PIN = 94% = 0.94
PIN = POUT / η
PIN ≈ 4.95W / 0.94 ≈ 5.3W
The power dissipation (PD) is the power loss in the system and can be calculated by subtracting the output
power from the input power.
PD = PIN – POUT
≈ 5.3W – 4.95W ≈ 0.35W
With the power dissipation known, the temperature rise in the device may be estimated based on the theta JA
value (θJA). The θJA parameter estimates how much the temperature will rise in the device for every watt of
power dissipation. The EN5319QI has a θJA value of 36°C/W without airflow.
Determine the change in temperature (ΔT) based on PD and θJA.
ΔT = PD x θJA
ΔT ≈ 0.35W x 36°C/W = 12.6°C ≈ 13°C
The junction temperature (TJ) of the device is approximately the ambient temperature (TA) plus the change in
temperature. We assume the initial ambient temperature to be 25°C.
TJ = TA + ΔT
TJ ≈ 25°C + 13°C ≈ 38°C
The maximum operating junction temperature (TJMAX) of the device is 125°C, so the device can operate at a
higher ambient temperature. The maximum ambient temperature (TAMAX) allowed can be calculated.
TAMAX = TJMAX – PD x θJA
≈ 125°C – 13°C ≈ 112°C
The ambient temperature can actually rise by another 87°C, bringing it to 112°C before the device will reach
TJMAX. This indicates that the EN5319QI can support the full 1.5A output current range up to approximately
112°C ambient temperature given the input and output voltage conditions. Note that the efficiency will be
slightly lower at higher temperatures and these calculations are estimates.

LAYOUT RECOMMENDATIONS
This layout only shows the critical components and top layer traces for minimum footprint with ENABLE as a
separate signal. Alternate ENABLE configurations & the POK pin need to be connected and routed according
to customer application. Please see the Gerber files on EN5319QI’s product page at www.altera.com/powersoc
for details on all layers.
Figure 9: Optimized Layout Rommendations
Recommendation 1: Input and output filter capacitors should be placed on the same side of the PCB, and as
close to the EN5319QI package as possible. They should be connected to the device with very short and wide
traces. Do not use thermal reliefs or spokes when connecting the capacitor pads to the respective nodes. The
Voltage and GND traces between the capacitors and the EN5319QI should be as close to each other as possible
so that the gap between the two nodes is minimized, even under the capacitors.
Recommendation 2: The system ground plane should be the first layer immediately below the surface layer.
This ground plane should be continuous and un-interrupted below the converter and the input/output
capacitors.
Recommendation 3: The thermal pad underneath the component must be connected to the system ground
plane through as many vias as possible. The drill diameter of the vias should be 0.33mm, and the vias must
have at least 1 oz. copper plating on the inside wall, making the finished hole size around 0.20-0.26mm. Do
not use thermal reliefs or spokes to connect the vias to the ground plane. This connection provides the path
for heat dissipation from the converter.
Recommendation 4: Multiple small vias (the same size as the thermal vias discussed in recommendation 3)
should be used to connect ground terminal of the input capacitor and output capacitors to the system ground
plane. It is preferred to put these vias along the edge of the GND copper closest to the +V copper. These vias
connect the input/output filter capacitors to the GND plane, and help reduce parasitic inductances in the input
and output current loops.
Recommendation 5: AVIN is the power supply for the small-signal control circuits. It should be connected to
the input voltage at a quiet point. In Figure 9 this connection is made at the input capacitor. Place a 1µF
capacitor from the AVIN pin to AGND right next to device pins.

Recommendation 6: The layer 1 metal under the device must not be more than shown in Figure 8. See the
section regarding exposed metal on bottom of package. As with any switch-mode DC-DC converter, try not to
run sensitive signal or control lines underneath the converter package on other layers.
Recommendation 7: The VOUT sense point should be just after the last output filter capacitor. Keep the sense
trace short in order to avoid noise coupling into the node.
Recommendation 8: Keep RA, CA, RB close to the VFB pin (See Figures 6). The VFB pin is a high-impedance,
sensitive node. Keep the trace to this pin as short as possible. Whenever possible, connect R B directly to the
AGND pin instead of going through the GND plane.

DESIGN CONSIDERATIONS FOR LEAD-FRAME BASED MODULES
Exposed Metal on Bottom of Package
QFN lead-frame based package technology utilizes exposed metal pads on the bottom of the package that
provide improved thermal dissipation, lower package thermal resistance, smaller package footprint and
thickness, larger lead size and pitch, and excellent lead co-planarity. As the EN5319QI package is a fully
integrated module consisting of multiple internal devices, the lead-frame provides circuit interconnection and
mechanical support of these devices resulting in multiple exposed metal pads on the package bottom.
Only the two large thermal pads and the perimeter leads are to be mechanically/electrically connected to the
PCB through a SMT soldering process. All other exposed metal is to remain free of any interconnection to the
PCB. Figure 10 shows the recommended PCB metal layout for the EN5319QI package. A GND pad with a solder
mask "bridge" to separate into two pads and 24 signal pads are to be used to match the metal on the package.
The PCB should be clear of any other metal, including traces, vias, etc., under the package to avoid electrical
shorting.
The Solder Stencil Aperture should be smaller than the PCB ground pad. This will prevent excess solder from
causing bridging between adjacent pins or other exposed metal under the package. Please consult EN5319QI
Soldering Guidelines for more details and recommendations.
