PRODUCTION DATA.
The following formulas show how to estimate the device power dissipation under continuous conduction mode (CCM) operation. These equations should not be used if the device is working in discontinuous conduction mode (DCM).
The power dissipation of the device includes the parameters that follow:
where
where
Therefore:
where
For given TA:
where
For given TJMAX = 150°C:
where
Additional power losses occur in the regulator circuit because of the inductor AC and DC losses, the catch diode, and trace resistance which impact the overall efficiency of the regulator.
