Hi tlogic

From the datasheets it is kmown that it can be operated upto 70C in free air, when u place your hand even at 50C it feels overheating. Keep in mind all power converter while designing you have to test it in pcb only, in wire test board the heat dissipation can't be happen. also in pcb at top side near the ic try to add more copper plan that helps the dissipation of the ic case heat. Even some room condition aslo effect in heating, like if you room is to dry humidity the natural cooling like case to air heat conduction will be less than the normal humidity.

thanks
Rakesh G
