1 All numbers are simulated and assume a JEDEC 4-layer test board.
2 θ
JA is the thermal resistance from hottest junction to ambient air.
3 θ
JC
(Uniform) is the thermal resistance from junction to the package top, assuming total power is uniformly distributed.
4 θ
JC
(Local) is the thermal resistance from junction to the center of package top, assuming total power = 8.5 W (1 W uniformly distributed, 7.5 W in power stages—local
heating).
5 θ
JCP is the thermal resistance from hottest junction to infinite cold plate with consideration of thermal interface material (TIM).
6 Ideal TIM is assuming top of package in perfect contact with an infinite cold plate. w/TIM is assuming TIM is 0.5 mm thick, with thermal conductivity of 2.56 W/m/k.
7 Heat sink with a rated performance of θ
CA ~5.3°C/W under forced convection, gives ~TJ = 111°C at 500 LFM. Thermal performance of the package depends on the heat
sink and environmental conditions.
8 Attached infinite cold plate should be ≤26°C to maintain T
J < 90°C, given total power = 8.5 W. Thermal performance of the package depends on the heat sink and
environmental conditions.
9 To estimate junction temperature, the following equations can be used:
TJ = Tamb + θJA × Power
TJ = Tcoldplate + θJCP × Power
TJ = Ttop + θJC × Power
