Thin Shrink Small Outline Package (TSSOP) is a rectangular surface mount plastic integrated circuit (IC) package with gull-wing leads. They are suited for applications requiring 1 mm or less mounted height and are commonly used in analog and operation amplifiers, controllers and Drivers, Logic, Memory, and RF/Wireless, Disk drives, video/audio and consumer electronics.

Thin Shrink Small Outline Package (TSSOP)

 

TSSOP has a smaller body and smaller lead pitch than the standard SOIC package. It is also smaller and thinner than a TSOP with the same lead count. The TSSOP come in body sizes of 3.0mm, 4.4mm and 6.1mm. The 3.0-mm TSSOP body has a typical thickness of 0.85 mm while the 4.4 mm- and 6.1-mm bodies have a typical thickness of 0.9 mm. TSSOP lead counts range from 8 to 56. The standard lead pitch used by TSSOP’s is 0.65mm.

Some TSSOP packages have an exposed pad. This is a rectangular metal pad on the bottom side of the package. The exposed pad will be soldered on the printed circuit board (PCB) to transfer heat from the package to the PCB. In most applications, the exposed pad is connected to ground. The Heat sink thin shrink small outline package (HTSSOP) is Texas Instruments name for a TSSOP with an exposed pad on the bottom side. There are some other manufacturers who uses the same name.

This package type is JEDEC-compliant. The table below shows a partial list of TSSOP package options.
