Thermal Consideration
The product is designed to operate in different thermal 
environments and sufcient cooling must be provided 
to ensure reliable operation. For products mounted on 
a PWB without a heat sink attached, cooling is achieved 
mainly by conduction, from the pins to the host board, 
and convection, which is dependant on the airow across 
the product. Increased airow enhances the cooling of 
the product. The Output Current Derating graph found in 
the output section for each model provides the available 
output current vs. ambient air temperature and air velocity 
at V
I
 =53 V. 
The product is tested on a 254 x 254 mm, 35 µm (1 oz), 
16-layer test board mounted vertically in a wind tunnel 
with a cross-section of 608 x 203 mm.
General
For products with base plate used in a sealed box/cold 
wall application, cooling is achieved mainly by conduction 
through the cold wall. The Output Current Derating graphs
are found in the output section for each model. The 
product is tested in a sealed box test set up with ambient 
temperatures 85, 55 and 25°C.
The product operating temperature is used to monitor the 
temperature of the product, and proper thermal conditions 
can be veried by measuring the temperature at positions 
P1, P2, P3 and P4. The temperature at these positions (T
P1
, 
T
P2
, T
P3
, T
P4
) should not exceed the maximum temperatures 
in the table below. The number of measurement points 
may vary with different thermal design and topology. 
Temperatures above maximum T
P1
, measured at the 
reference point P1 (T
P3
 / 
P3
 for base plate versions) are not 
allowed and may cause permanent damage.
