8.1.3.3 Junction Temperature Estimation

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 22.2 °C/W for the DDW package.

Assuming 25°C ambient temperature, the junction temperature for the DDW package is calculated as shown below -

Equation 19. TJ = 25°C + (3.852-W x 22.2 °C/W) = 110.5 °C

For more accurate calculation, consider the dependency of on-resistance of FETs with device junction temperature, as explained in Section 8.1.1.2.2 and Section 8.1.2.3.

The DDV package with heat sink mounted on top will be able to deliver up to 10A current to both brushed-DC motors.
