SLVSG65A May 2022 – March 2023 TPS62903-Q1
PRODUCTION DATA
The TPS62903-Q1 is capable of high operating junction temperatures up to 165°C. The AEC-Q100 Grade-1 maximum ambient temperature requirement (TA_max = 125°C) combined with power dissipation on integrated chips often results in device operating temperatures well above 125 °C. Additionally, although Grade 1 with extended temperature does not exist as a standard by itself, the 165°C maximum operating junction temperature allows for the TPS62903-Q1 to be used in applications with ambient temperatures upwards of 150°C that require less device power dissipation.
For more information on the different thermal metrics for semiconductor integrated circuits (ICs) including the relationship between the operating junction (TJ) and ambient (TA) temperatures of a device, refer to the Semiconductor and IC Package Thermal Metrics application report.
The TPS62903-Q1 is designed to sustain these high temperatures while maintaining performance and reliability, which is accomplished by compliant electrical specifications up to TJ = 165°C. In addition, extra reliability testing has been performed that exceeds the AEC-Q100 Grade 1 requirements.
