When designing a thermal solution, it is important to consider what the maximum temperature the device/junction is allowed to reach. It is recommended to choose one of the overtemperature warnings (OTW) as the maximum temperature threshold rather than the overtemperature shutdown (OTSD) threshold. Any OTSD event will prevent customers from listening to their audio. By choosing an OTW point, the device will not have to shutdown from reaching the OTSD temperature.
