BTS4130QGA
Power Stage
5.3.1 Maximum Load Inductance
During demagnetization of inductive loads, energy has to be dissipated in the BTS4130QGA. This energy can be
calculated with following equation:
Following equation simplifies under the assumption of R
L
= 0Ω.
The energy, which is converted into heat, is limited by the thermal design of the component. See Figure 8 for the
maximum allowed inductivity.
