(1) For more information about traditional and new thermal metrics, see the IC Package Thermal Metrics application report, SPRA953.
(2) Maximum power dissipation may be limited by overcurrent protection
(3) Power rating at a specific ambient temperature T
A
should be determined with a junction temperature of 150°C. This is the point where
distortion starts to substantially increase. Thermal management of the PCB should strive to keep the junction temperature at or below
150°C for best performance and long-term reliability. See power dissipation estimate in application section of this data sheet for more
information.
(4) Test boards conditions:
(a) 2 inches x 2 inches, 4 layers, thickness: 0.062 inch
(b) 2 oz. copper traces located on the top of the PCB
(c) 2 oz. copper ground planes on the 2 internal layers and bottom layer
(d) 4 thermal vias (10mil) located under the device package
