12.3 Surface Mount Information

The TPS8269x MicroSIP DC/DC converter uses an open frame construction that is designed for a fully automated assembly process and that features a large surface area for pick and place operations. See the "Pick Area" in the package drawings.

Package height and weight have been kept to a minimum thereby allowing the MicroSIP device to be handled similarly to a 0805 component.

See JEDEC/IPC standard J-STD-20b for reflow recommendations.
