EPC2361
TYPICAL THERMAL CONCEPT
The EPC2361 can take advantage of dual sided cooling to maximize its heat dissipation capabilities in high power density designs.
Note that the top of EPC FETs are connected to source potential, so for half-bridge topologies the Thermal Interface Material (TIM) needs to provide electrical isolation to the heatsink.
Recommended best practice thermal solutions are covered in detail in
