A thermal pad is recommended under the package to improve heat dissipation. A minimum of 2oz copper thickness and a thermal relief pattern are suggested. Refer to the application note for detailed layout guidelines.
Implement a thermal management system to keep the junction temperature below 125°C. Use a heat sink, thermal interface material, and ensure good airflow. Monitor the device's thermal status using the built-in thermal sensor.
The maximum allowed voltage on the input pins is 5.5V, which is higher than the recommended operating voltage of 3.3V. However, exceeding 5.5V may cause permanent damage to the device.
Yes, the DBS104G is suitable for battery-powered devices due to its low power consumption. However, ensure that the power supply is well-regulated and filtered to prevent voltage spikes and noise.
Use a logic analyzer or oscilloscope to monitor the I2C bus signals. Check for proper pull-up resistors, correct clock frequency, and ensure that the device is properly addressed. Refer to the I2C bus specification for detailed troubleshooting guidelines.
