Case Temperature Measuring Method

The relationship between case temperature and junction temperature is described in the following thermal equation.

If Tc is known, then Tj can be calculated:

Tj = Tc + (Pd x θjc)

Note: Testing is done with the worst-case power draw, software loading, and ambient air temperature.

There is good tracking between the case temperature and the heatsink temperature.

Heatsink Temperature Measuring Method

Measuring the heatsink temperature is sometimes easier than measuring the case temperature. This method provides accurate results for most designs. If the heatsink temperature (Ts) is known then the following ther- mal equation can be used to estimate the junction temperature:

Tj = Ts + [Pd (θjc + θcs)]
