9.2.3 Transient Thermal Performance

The TPS1HC03-Q1 device can experience different transient conditions that cause large currents to flow for a short duration of time. These may include:

  • Inrush current during high capacitive or bulb load charging.
  • Fault conditions such as output shorted to ground, triggering overcurrent protection.
  • Briefly energizing a inductive load such as motor or solenoid for a limited time, then de-energizing.

In these transient cases, the thermal impedance parameter ZϴJA denotes the junction-to-ambient thermal performance. The below figure shows the simulated thermal impedance for EVM under natural convection conditions using an FR4 2s2p board. The device (chip + package) was modeled on a 76.2 × 114.3 × 1.5mm board featuring two inner copper layers (two at 70μm Cu thickness and two at 35μm Cu thickness). Five thermal vias positioned beneath the VBB and VOUT pads established contact with the first inner copper layer (12mm x 12mm). All simulations were performed at an ambient temperature of 25°C with power dissipation set at 1 W for the channel.
