DSO (Dual Small Outline) package is a type of package for circuit chips. It is a low-cost, miniaturized package that is widely used in various electronic devices and systems.
DSO packaging is usually used to package medium-sized integrated circuit chips, such as microcontrollers, logic chips, memory chips, etc. It adopts a dual-column pinout design, and the pin count is usually between 8 and 64, which makes the DSO package very suitable for high-density and compact circuit board designs. Features of the DSO package include:
1. Small size: It takes up less space and is suitable for limited PCB (Printed Circuit Board, printed circuit board) space.
2. High pin density: Due to the dual-column pin arrangement, the DSO package can provide higher pin density, which helps to achieve more functions and connections.
3. Good heat dissipation performance: usually adopts a design with a heat dissipation pin (thermal pad), which is helpful for heat dissipation and temperature management.
4. Low cost: Compared with other advanced packaging forms (such as BGA, QFN, etc.), DSO packaging has a lower manufacturing cost, which is conducive to reducing the overall product cost.
It should be noted that the DSO package is different from the SO (Small Outline) package, which only has a single row of pins. The DSO package offers a higher pin density than the SO package at the same size.
DSO packaging is a common IC packaging type, suitable for medium-sized chips. The following are common DSO package specifications in general:
1. Number of pins: There are many options for the number of pins, usually ranging from 8 pins to 64 pins. Common pin counts include 8, 14, 16, 20, 28, 32.
48 and 64 etc.
2. Pin pitch (Pitch): The pin pitch is usually 0.65 room meters (mm), which is a common pitch size. But there are also DSO packages with other pitch sizes, such as 0.8mm or 1.27mm.
3. Package shape: Usually a rectangular shape, its size depends on the number of pins, common package shapes include SOIC (Small Outline nteqrated Circuit) and TSSOp (Thin Shrink Small Outline Package), etc.
4. Packaging material: plastic packaging materials are usually used, such as organic glass (Organic Glass) or ring resin (Epoxy Resin). It should be noted that the specific DSO packaging specifications may vary due to different packaging standards, manufacturers and chip types difference. Therefore, in practical applications, you should refer to the specification sheet of a specific package and the technical information provided by the manufacturer to obtain accurate package specification information.
DSO Package Design Process
DSO packaging is a common type of integrated circuit packaging, and its design process usually involves the following aspects:
1. Packaging material selection: plastic packaging materials are usually used. In the design, it is necessary to select a suitable packaging material and consider factors such as its thermal expansion coefficient, mechanical strength and electrical insulation performance.
2. Pin design: Pin design needs to consider the number of pins, spacing, size and arrangement, etc. Generally, it is necessary to reasonably arrange the layout of the pins to meet the circuit connection requirements and maintain good electrical characteristics, such as minimizing resistance and capacitance, etc.
3. Wiring design: Wiring design includes the wiring between pins and the wiring of internal circuits, and factors such as signal transmission integrity, electromagnetic compatibility, and power distribution need to be considered. Proper layout design can reduce signal delay, suppress noise interference and improve overall performance.
4. Thermal management: Thermal management needs to be considered in the design to ensure that the temperature inside the chip is controlled within a safe range. Usually, thermal pads can be used to improve heat conduction and heat dissipation effects, and heat dissipation paths and heat dissipation structures should be reasonably designed.
5. Packaging manufacturing process: The manufacturing process includes steps such as chip mounting, pin welding, package sealing and testing. These steps require following standard semiconductor manufacturing processes with quality control and testing to ensure package quality and performance as required.
