Thermal Protection

The internal power dissipation of any amplifier causes its internal (junction) temperature to rise. This phenomenon is called self heating. The absolute maximum junction temperature of the OPA4991-EP is 150°C. Exceeding this temperature causes damage to the device. The OPA4991-EP has a thermal protection feature that reduces damage from self heating. The protection works by monitoring the temperature of the device and turning off the op amp output drive for temperatures above 170°C. Figure 7-4 shows an application example for the OPA4991-EP that has significant self heating because of its power dissipation (0.81 W). Thermal calculations indicate that for an ambient temperature of 65°C, the device junction temperature will reach 177°C. The actual device, however, turns off the output drive to recover towards a safe junction temperature. Figure 7-4 shows how the circuit behaves during thermal protection. During normal operation, the device acts as a buffer so the output is 3 V. When self heating causes the device junction temperature to increase above the internal limit, the thermal protection forces the output to a high-impedance state and the output is pulled to ground through resistor RL. If the condition that caused excessive power dissipation is not removed, the amplifier will oscillate between a shutdown and enabled state until the output fault is corrected.

Figure 7-4 Thermal Protection

If the device continues to operate at high junction temperatures with high output power over a long period of time, regardless if the device is or is not entering thermal shutdown, the thermal dissipation of the device can slowly degrade performance of the device and eventually cause catastrophic destruction. Designers should be careful to limit output power of the device at high temperatures, or control ambient and junction temperatures under high output power conditions.
