PRODUCTION DATA
For an ambient temperature of TA and total power dissipation (PTOT), the junction temperature (TJ) is calculated as -
TJ = TA + (PTOT x RθJA)
Considering a JEDEC standard 4-layer PCB, the junction-to-ambient thermal resistance (RθJA) is 22.5 °C/W for the DDW package and 24.5 °C/W for the PWP package.
Assuming 25°C ambient temperature, the junction temperature for the DDW package is calculated as shown below -
For more accurate calculation, consider the dependency of on-resistance of FETs with device junction temperature.
