Assuming a thermal resistance of 40°C/W for the main and
synchronous FETs, the resulting junction temperatures at
an ambient of 60°C will be 82°C and 104°C, respectively.

Some airflow may be required for higher ambient tem-
peratures. A maximum MOSFET junction temperature of
110°C at worst case ambient generally provides adequate
margin.
Given a typical Q
G
of 8nC for the RJK0305DPB and 27nC
for the RJK0330DPB and the 400kHz switching frequency,
the current supplied by INTV
CC
will be:
I
GATECHG
= (8nC + 27nC) • 400kHz = 14mA
The resulting controller temperature at 60°C and a 20V
input will be:
T
J
= 60°C + 20V • 14mA • 76°C/W = 81°C
which is well under the maximum junction temperature
of 125°C.
