The heatsink should be designed with as many fins as possible to increase heat dissipation area.
Meanwhile, a thermal pad with high thermal conductivity should be used between the heatsink and
module/PCB.
The following shows two kinds of heatsink designs for reference and customers can choose one or both
of them according to their application structure.
