The AD9912 is specified for a case temperature (T
CASE
). To
ensure that T
CASE
is not exceeded, an airflow source can be used.
Use the following equation to determine the junction tempera-
ture on the application PCB:
T
J
= T
CASE
+ (Ψ
JT
× PD)
where:
T
J
is the junction temperature (°C).
T
CASE
is the case temperature (°C) measured by customer at top
center of package.
Ψ
JT
is the value from Table 7.
PD is the power dissipation (see the Total Power Dissipation
section in the Specifications section).
Values of θ
JA
are provided for package comparison and PCB
design considerations. θ
JA
can be used for a first-order
approximation of T
J
by the equation
T
J
= T
A
+ (θ
JA
× PD)
where T
A
is the ambient temperature (°C).
Values of θ
JC
are provided for package comparison and PCB
design considerations when an external heat sink is required.
Values of θ
JB
are provided for package comparison and PCB
design considerations.
The values in Table 7 apply to both 64-lead package options.
