Description
Yes, Intel® MAX®10 devices in the E144 package have an exposed pad at the bottom of the package. The exposed ground pad is used for electrical connectivity and not for thermal purposes. Therefore, you must connect the exposed ground pad to the ground plane of the PCB.
To know the exposed pad dimensions, refer to dimensions D2 and E2 for the E144 package, which can be found on the Package and Thermal Resistance (MAX 10) page.
