Caution: Stresses beyond 'Absolute Maximum Ratings' levels may cause permanent damage to the device. These levels are stress ratings only, and functional operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated in Table 3-2, 'Recommended Operating Conditions' is not implied. Exposure to absolute maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.

CS43198-CNZR Thermal Information

The CS43198 comes in a compact QFN package, the underside of which reveals a large metal pad that serves as a thermal relief to provide maximum heat dissipation. This pad must mate with a matching copper pad on the PCB and must be electrically connected to ground. A series of vias must be used to connect this copper pad to one or more larger ground planes on other PCB layers. For best performance in split-ground systems, connect this thermal pad to GNDA.
