Thermal Performance

Figure 3-40 through Figure 3-43 show the temperature rise of the TPS543820 ICs at full 8-A load. Figure 3-40 and Figure 3-41 have only one TPS543820 on and loaded. Figure 3-42 and Figure 3-43 have both TPS543820s loaded. A minimum of a 10 minute soak time was used before taking each measurement.
