Thermal Considerations

Heat sinks are used to cool CR201-50VE. Two FETs are mounted per heat sink: therefore, insulation must be used between the exposed drain of the FETs and the heat sink. CD-02-05-247 insulation sheets are used. Additionally two 12-V (CFM-6015V-154-362) fans are mounted to provide sufficient airflow. The heat sink data sheet provides a thermal resistance of 0.5 C / W (Rth,HS). The insulation sheet adds another 0.1 C / W (Rth,iso) of thermal resistance. The primary side FET C3M0075120K has a thermal resistance Rth,JC of 1.1 C / W and a maximum operating temperature of 150°C, while the secondary sided FET (C3M0030090K) has a thermal resistance Rth,JC of 0.48 C / W and also a maximum junction temperature of 150°C. With this information, the maximum allowable power dissipation per FET can be calculated with Equation 32. This assumes 2 FETs are connected to one heat sink like in the reference design.

Equation 32. P max = T J , max - T A 2 × R th , HS + R th , iso + R th , JC

This leads to a maximum of 50 W of losses per FET on primary side and 69 W per FET on secondary side assuming an ambient temperature TA of 40°C.
