LEADLESS DFN PACKAGE
typical surface-mount resistor.
The OPA320 series uses the DFN style package
(also known as SON), which is a QFN with contacts
on only two sides of the package bottom. This
leadless package maximizes PCB space and offers
enhanced thermal and electrical characteristics
through an exposed pad. One of the primary
advantages of the DFN package is its low height
(0.8mm).
DFN packages are physically small, have a smaller
routing area, improved thermal performance, reduced
electrical parasitics, and a pinout scheme that is
consistent with other commonly-used packages (such
as SO and MSOP). Additionally, the absence of
external leads eliminates bent-lead issues.

The DFN package can easily be mounted using
