Thermal Considerations

As with any power conversion device, the LM516x dissipates internal power while operating. The effect of this power dissipation is to raise the internal temperature of the converter above ambient. The internal die temperature (TJ) is a function of the following:

  • Ambient temperature
  • Power loss
  • Effective thermal resistance, RθJA, of the application
  • PCB layout

The maximum internal die temperature for the LM516x must be limited to 150°C. This establishes a limit on the maximum device power dissipation and, therefore, the load current. Equation 37 shows the relationships between the important parameters. It is easy to see that larger ambient temperatures (TA) and larger values of RθJA reduce the maximum available output current. The converter efficiency can be estimated by using the curves provided in this data sheet. Note that these curves include the power loss in the inductor. If the desired operating conditions cannot be found in one of the curves, then interpolation can be used to estimate the efficiency. Alternatively, the EVM can be adjusted to match the desired application requirements and the efficiency can be measured directly. The correct value of RθJA is more difficult to estimate. As stated in the Semiconductor and IC Package Thermal Metrics Application Report, the value of RθJA given in the Thermal Information table is not valid for design purposes and must not be used to estimate the thermal performance of the application. The values reported in that table were measured under a specific set of conditions that are rarely obtained in an actual application. The data given for RθJC(bott) and ΨJT can be useful when determining thermal performance. The value of RθJA(EVM) is applicable to the LM5168PEVM and is given for reference only. See the Semiconductor and IC Package Thermal Metrics Application Report for more information and the resources given at the end of this section.

where

  • η is the efficiency.

The effective RθJA is a critical parameter and depends on many factors such as the following:

  • Power dissipation
  • Air temperature, flow
  • PCB area
  • Copper heat-sink area
  • Number of thermal vias under the package
  • Adjacent component placement

The LM516x features a die attach paddle, or "thermal pad" (EP), to provide a place to solder down to the PCB heat-sinking copper. This provides a good heat conduction path from the regulator junction to the heat sink and must be properly soldered to the PCB heat sink copper. Typical examples of RΘJA can be found in Figure 9-33. The copper area given in the graph is for each layer. The top and bottom layers are 2-oz copper each, while the inner layers are 1 oz.

Figure 9-33 Typical RΘJA Versus Copper Area

The data in Figure 9-34 and Figure 9-35 can be used as a guide to determine the maximum output current for a given set of conditions. The particular conditions under which these graphs were taken are indicated in the notes below each graph.

VOUT = 5 V L = 68 μH FSW = 500 kHz
RΘJA = 24 ºC/W
Figure 9-34 Maximum Output Current: VOUT = 5 V
VOUT = 12 V L = 68 μH FSW = 500 kHz
RΘJA = 24 ºC/W
Figure 9-35 Maximum Output Current: VOUT = 12 V

Remember that the data given in Figure 9-33 through Figure 9-35 is for illustration purposes only, and the actual performance in any given application depends on all of the previously mentioned factors.

The following resources can be used as a guide to optimal thermal PCB design and estimating RθJA for a given application environment:
