## 2. Design Considerations
### 2.1 Common Design Pitfalls and Solutions
#### Pitfall 1: Inadequate Thermal Management
Problem : Overheating leading to thermal shutdown or reduced lifespan
Solution :
- Ensure adequate copper pour on PCB for heat dissipation
- Use thermal vias under the package
- Consider airflow in enclosure design
- Derate maximum current at elevated ambient temperatures
