Calculating Junction Temperature
Example: Given an output voltage of 2.5V, an input voltage
range of 3.3V ± 5%, an output current range of 0mA to
500mA and a maximum ambient temperature of 85°C,
what will the maximum junction temperature be?
The power dissipated by the device equals:
where:
So,
Using a DFN package, the thermal resistance will be in
the range of 60°C/W to 70°C/W depending on the cop-
per area. So the junction temperature rise above ambient
approximately equals:
The maximum junction temperature equals the maximum
ambient temperature plus the maximum junction tempera-
ture rise above ambient or:
