(2) The junction-to-ambient thermal resistance, RθJA, applies to devices soldered directly to a 50 mm × 50 mm double-sided PCB with 2 oz. copper and natural convection cooling. Additional airflow reduces RθJA.
(3) The junction-to-top characterization parameter, ψJT, estimates the junction temperature, TJ, of a device in a real system, using a procedure described in JESD51-2A (sections 6 and 7). TJ = ψJT × Pdis + TT; where Pdis is the power dissipated in the device and TT is the temperature of the top of the controller IC.
(4) The junction-to-board characterization parameter, ψJB, estimates the junction temperature, TJ, of a device in a real system, using a procedure described in JESD51-2A (sections 6 and 7). TJ = ψJB × Pdis + TB; where Pdis is the power dissipated in the device and TB is the temperature of the module board 1 mm from the controller IC.
