Thermal characteristics
9.1 Thermal characteristics
The average chip junction temperature, TJ (°C), can be calculated using the following
equation:
(1)
• TA = ambient temperature (°C),
• θJA = the package junction-to-ambient thermal resistance ( °C/W)
• PD = sum of internal and I/O power dissipation
The internal power dissipation is the product of IDD and VDD. The I/O power dissipation of
the I/O pins is often small and many times can be negligible. However it can be significant
in some applications.
