PRODUCTION DATA
This example shows how to calculate IC power dissipation for a configuration to estimate worst-case power dissipation. In this case, the maximum supply voltage and supply current values specified in Section 6.5 are used:
Using the power calculations from the previous section and maximum supply current specifications, the user can compute PTOTAL and PDEVICE.
In this worst-case example, the IC device will dissipate about 510.4 mW or 88.7% of the total power (575.2 mW), while the remaining 11.3% will be dissipated in the termination resistors (64.8 mW for 4 pairs). Based on RθJA of 38.1°C/W, the estimate die junction temperature would be about 19.4°C above ambient, or 104.4°C when TA = 85°C.
