8.8 Thermal Analysis

The relatively low internal quiescent power dissipation for the THS4541-Q1, combined with the excellent thermal impedance of the 16-pin VQFN (RGT) package, limits the possibility of excessively-high, internal-junction temperatures.

To estimate the internal junction temperature (TJ), an estimate of the maximum internal power dissipation (PD) is first required. There are two pieces to the internal power dissipation: quiescent current power and the power used in the output stage to deliver load current. To simplify the latter, the worst-case, output-stage power is driving a DC differential voltage across a load using half the total supply voltage. As an example:

  1. Assume a worst-case, 5% high 5-V supply. This 5.25-V supply with a maximum ICC of 11 mA gives a quiescent power term = 58 mW.
  2. Assume a 100-Ω differential load with a static 2.5-V differential voltage established across it. This 25 mA of DC load current generates a maximum output stage power of (5.25 V – 2.5 V) × 25 mA = 69 mW.
  3. From this total worst-case internal PD = 127 mW, multiply times the 52°C/W thermal impedance to get a 7°C rise from ambient.

Even for this extreme condition and the maximum rated ambient temperature of 125°C, the junction temperature is a maximum 132°C (less than the rated absolute maximum of 150°C). Follow this same calculation sequence for the exact application and package selected to predict the maximum TJ.
