APPLICATIO S I FOR ATIO
voltage and resistor value. Power dissipation can be
calculated using the following formula:
where:
The worst-case power dissipation in the PNP pass transis-
tor is simply equal to:
where
The thermal resistance of the MJE1123 is equal to:
The PNP will normally be attached to either a chassis or a
heat sink so the actual thermal resistance from junction to
ambient will be the sum of the PNP’s junction to case
thermal resistance and the thermal resistance of the heat
sink or chassis. For nonstandard heat sinks the user will
need to determine the thermal resistance by experiment.

The maximum junction temperature rise above ambient
for the PNP pass transistor will be equal to the maximum
power dissipation times the thermal resistance, junction
to ambient, of the PNP. The maximum operating junction
temperature of the MJE1123 is 150°C. The maximum
operating ambient temperature for the MJE1123 will be
equal to 150°C minus the maximum junction temperature
rise.
The SOT-223 package is designed to be surface mounted.
Heat sinking is accomplished by using the heat spreading
capabilities of the PC board and its copper traces. The
thermal resistance from junction to ambient can be as low
as 50°C/W. This requires a reasonably sized PC board with
at least one layer of copper to spread the heat across the
board and couple it into the surrounding air.
The table below can be used as a guideline in estimating
thermal resistance. Data for the table was generated using
1/16" FR-4 board with 1oz copper foil.
Table 1.
* Tab of device attached to topside copper
For the LT1123 the tab is ground so that plated through
holes can be used to couple the tab both electrically and
thermally to the ground plane layer of the board. This will
help to lower the thermal resistance.
Thermal Limiting
The thermal limit of the LT1123 can be used to protect both
the LT1123 and the PNP pass transistor. This is accom-
plished by thermally coupling the LT1123 to the power
transistor. There are clip type heat sinks available for the
TO-92 package that will allow the LT1123 to be mounted
to the same heat sink as the PNP pass transistor. One
example is manufactured by IERC (part #RUR67B1CB).
