7.4.1.1 Thermal Considerations

The thermal protection feature disables the output when the junction temperature rises to approximately 160°C, allowing the device to cool. When the junction temperature cools to approximately 140°C, the output circuitry is enabled. Depending on power dissipation, thermal resistance, and ambient temperature, the thermal-protection circuit can cycle on and off. This thermal limit protects the device from damage as a result of overheating.

Any tendency to activate the thermal protection circuit indicates excessive power dissipation or an inadequate heat sink. For reliable operation, junction temperature must be limited to 125°C maximum. To estimate the margin of safety in a complete design (including heat sink), increase the ambient temperature until the thermal protection is triggered; use worst-case loads and signal conditions. For good reliability, thermal protection must trigger at least 35°C above the maximum expected ambient condition of your particular application. This configuration produces a worst-case junction temperature of 125°C at the highest-expected ambient temperature and worst-case load.

The internal-protection circuitry of the TPS7A7200 is designed to protect against overload conditions. This circuitry is not intended to replace proper heat sinking. Continuously running the TPS7A7200 into thermal shutdown degrades device reliability.
