10.1 Layout Guidelines

For the best overall performance, some layout guidelines should be followed. Place all circuit components on the same side of the circuit board and as near as practical to the respective linear regulator pins connections. Traces should be kept short and wide to reduce the amount of parasitic elements into the system. The actual width and thickness of traces will depend on the current carrying capability and heat dissipation required by the end system. An array of plated vias can be placed on the pad area underneath the TAB to conduct heat to any inner plane areas or to a bottom-side copper plane.

10.3 Thermal Considerations

ICs heats up when in operation, and power consumption is one factor in how hot it gets. The other factor is how well the heat is dissipated. Heat dissipation is predictable by knowing the thermal resistance between the IC and ambient (θJA). Thermal resistance has units of temperature per power (C/W). The higher the thermal resistance, the hotter the IC.

The LM1085 specifies the thermal resistance for each package as junction to case (θJC). In order to get the total resistance to ambient (θJA), two other thermal resistance must be added, one for case to heat-sink (θCH) and one for heatsink to ambient (θHA). The junction temperature can be predicted as follows:

Equation 3. TJ = TA + PDJC + θCH + θHA) = TA + PD θJA

TJ is junction temperature, TA is ambient temperature, and PD is the power consumption of the device. Device power consumption is calculated as follows:

Equation 4. IIN = IL + IG
Equation 5. PD = (VIN−VOUT) IL + VINIG

Figure 28 shows the voltages and currents which are present in the circuit.

Once the devices power is determined, the maximum allowable (θJA (max)) is calculated as:

θJA (max) = TR(max)/PD = TJ(max) − TA(max)/PD

The LM1085 has different temperature specifications for two different sections of the IC: the control section and the output section. The Thermal Information table shows the junction to case thermal resistances for each of these sections, while the maximum junction temperatures (TJ(max)) for each section is listed in the Absolute Maximum Ratings section of the datasheet. TJ(max) is 125°C for the control section, while TJ(max) is 150°C for the output section.

θJA (max) should be calculated separately for each section as follows:

Equation 6. θJA (max, CONTROL SECTION) = (125°C - TA(max))/PD
Equation 7. θJA (max, OUTPUT SECTION) = (150°C - TA(max))/PD

The required heat sink is determined by calculating its required thermal resistance (θHA (max)).

Equation 8. θHA (max) = θJA (max) − (θJC + θCH)

HA (max)) should also be calculated twice as follows:

Equation 9. (θHA (max)) = θJA (max, CONTROL SECTION) - (θJC (CONTROL SECTION) + θCH)
Equation 10. (θHA (max)) = θJA(max, OUTPUT SECTION) - (θJC (OUTPUT SECTION) + θCH)

If thermal compound is used, θCH can be estimated at 0.2 C/W. If the case is soldered to the heat sink, then a θCH can be estimated as 0 C/W.

After, θHA (max) is calculated for each section, choose the lower of the two θHA (max) values to determine the appropriate heat sink.

If PC board copper is going to be used as a heat sink, then Figure 29 can be used to determine the appropriate area (size) of copper foil required.
