SNVS737F October 2011 – June 2019 LMR24220
PRODUCTION DATA.
Temperature rise increases with frequency, load current, input voltage and smaller board dimensions. On a typical board, the LMR24220 is capable of supplying 2 A below an ambient temperature of 50°C under worst case operation with input voltage of 42 V. Figure 27 shows a thermal derating curve for the output current without thermal shutdown against ambient temperature up to 125°C. Obtaining 2-A output current is possible at higher temperature by increasing the PCB ground plane area, adding air flow or reducing the input voltage or operating frequency
