Power considerations

The average chip-junction temperature, TJ, in degrees Celsius, may be calculated using the

following equation:

TJ = TA + (PD x ΘJA)(1)

Where:

–TA is the Ambient Temperature in °C,

–

ΘJA is the Package Junction-to-Ambient Thermal Resistance, in °C/W,

–PD is the sum of PINT and PI/O (PD = PINT + PI/O),

–PINT is the product of IDD and VDD, expressed in Watt. This is the Chip Internal

Power,

–PI/O represents the Power Dissipation on Input and Output Pins; User Determined.

Most of the time for the applications PI/O< PINT and may be neglected. On the other hand,

PI/O may be significant if the device is configured to drive continuously external modules

and/or memories.

An approximate relationship between PD and TJ (if PI/O is neglected) is given by:

PD = K / (TJ + 273°C)

(2)

Therefore (solving equations 1 and 2):

K = PD x (TA + 273°C) + ΘJA x PD

(3)

Where:

–

K is a constant for the particular part, which may be determined from equation (3)

by measuring PD (at equilibrium) for a known TA. Using this value of K, the values

of PD and TJ may be obtained by solving equations (1) and (2) iteratively for any

value of TA
