APL5901/2
Thermal Protection
Thermal protection limits total power dissipation in the
device. When the junction temperature exceeds
T
nal to turn off the pass transistor and allows IC to
cool. When the IC’ s junction temperature is down by
10℃, the thermal sensor will turn the pass transistor
on again, resulting in a pulsed output during continu-
ous thermal protection. Thermal protection is designed
to protect the APL5901/2 in the event of fault
conditions. For continuous operation, do not exceed
the absolute maximum junction temperature of
T
Operating Region and Power Dis-
sipation
The thermal resistance of the case to circuit board,
and the rate of air flow all control the APL5901/2’ s
maximum power dissipation. The power dissipation
across the device is P
mum power dissipation is:
P
where T
junction and ambient air, θ
tance of the package, and θ
tance through the printed circuit board, copper traces,
and other materials to the ambient air.
The GND pin of the APL5901 provide an electrical con-
nection to ground and channeling heat away. If power
dissipation is large, connect the GND pin to ground
using a large pad or ground plane, can improve the
problem of over heat of IC.
