4. Calculating the maximum power dissipation:
For calculating the maximum power dissipation, the minimum forward voltage sum of the
LEDs connected in series
voltage
current
calculates:
With assuming a maximum current consumption of 15 mA @
maximum power dissipation for the example is 1.28 W.
5. Thermal Resistance needed:
The thermal resistance from junction to ambient
With allowing a junction temperature of 150 °C, the
be 50 K/W.
In case some copper area on the PCB is used as a heat sink, the area needed is
approximately 6 cm
several via holes to the GND-layer or to a heatsink area on the PCB backside help to
distribute the heat.
For additional information on the thermal resistance see Infineon’ s special subject book
“Thermal Resistance - Theory and Practice” including extended package information.
