APPLICATION NOTE Date: 2003-08-12 Page 1 of 9 AN-Number: AN2003-06 Mounting instructions for EasyPIM750 and EasyPACK750 Modules with screw clamps 1. General information The mounting instructions outlined below are recommended for the safe and reliable operation of the above mentioned modules in typical applications. The recommendations given are based on the experiences gained during laboratory and field tests. The EasyPIM750 and EasyPACK750 Modules are designed to be attached to a printed circuit board (PCB), 1.6 mm 0.2 mm thick. Each module is fixed to the heat sink using one screw clamp. The recommended distance from the center of the module to the screw fixing hole is 22.5 mm (Picture 1). The clamp (Picture 2) can be ordered from eupec separately. eupec GmbH Picture 1: EasyPIM750 Module with mounted screw clamp Max-Planck-Strae 5 D-59581 Warstein Author:Ralf Keggenhoff Tel. +49(0)2902 764-2231 Fax +49(0)2902 764-1150 Email: Ralf.Keggenhoff eupec.com An Infineon Technologies Company www.eupec.com Mounting instructions for EasyPIM750 and EasyPACK750 Modules with screw clamps Date: 2003.08.12 Page 2 of 9 AN-Number: AN2003-06 Picture 2: Side view and top view of the screw clamp 2. Fixing of the screw clamp to the module First the screw clamp has to be fixed to the module. It has to be thread over the hook (Picture 3 b) in the centre of the module and pressed into the first lock position (Picture 3 c). This first lock posi- tion makes sure that during all further processing, the clamp will safely fixed to the module. For this mounting step, a minimum force F1 of approx. 10 N should be applied.
