FET Thermal Impedance

The TPS7H6200-SEP incorporated GaN FETs are on a monolithic substrate and sized for wide VIN to VOUT point of load synchronous buck applications; therefore, the sizing of the FETs are not symmetrical. The low-side FET is three times larger than the high-side FET, this results in the high side FET having a thermal impedance that is three times larger than the low side.

Figure 9-3 and Figure 9-4 show the modeled thermal impedance of the low-side and high side FETs. This modeling represents the combined thermal impedance at thermal pads 45 and 46 for the low-side FET and pad 47 for the high side FET.

Also included are equivalent Foster network RC values that facilitate thermal simulations of the mission of the mission profile. In conjunction with electrical simulations the Foster network values establish a thermal domain. Include in the thermal domain the lumped thermal resistance and capacitance models associated PCB and heat sink thermal characteristics. Figure 9-5 gives a simplified example of how to implement Foster network parameters with external thermal resistances, including PCB and other application considerations.
