Use a 0.1mF bypass capacitor at BP for low

As a general rule, the lower the temperature is,
the better the reliability of the device is. So the
PCB mounting pad should provide maximum
thermal conductivity to maintain low device
temperature.
POWER DISSIPATION
The maximum power dissipation of AIC1730
depends on the thermal resistance of the case
and circuit board, the temperature difference
between the die junction and ambient air, and
the rate of air flow. The rate of temperature rise is
greatly affected by the mounting pad
configuration on the PCB, the board material,
and the ambient temperature. When the IC
mounting with good thermal conductivity is used,
the junction will be low even if the power
dissipation is great.
The GND pin performs the dual function of
providing an electrical connection to ground and
channeling heat away. Therefore, connecting the
GND pin to ground with a large pad or ground
plane would increase the power dissipation and
reduce the device temperature.
The power dissipation across the device is P =
IOUT (VIN-VOUT).
