SN75LVCP600S: SN75LVCP600S

Buck Patel
Prodigy 60 points
Part Number: SN75LVCP600S

Tool/software:

SN75LVCP600S data sheet states "Operating free-air temperature" from -40C to +85C.

Question:

Operating free-air temperature is a vague term. Most TI data sheets, tells us the Max Operating Jc.

Can you state the Max Operating Jc. for this part?

Do you have similar parts that operate at ambient temp from -40C to say 95C? Automotive grade parts?  

Thanks

    Hi,

    Years ago when components were more primitive, all electronic equipment had blower fans to keep the internal components cool. These fans tended to be standard and to put out a certain PSI of airflow. The temperature under these fans was called operating free-air temperature. In those days, almost all TI parts were characterized using airflow equivalent to the blower-motor output. Operating ambient temperature is measured in still air. With the advent of more modern components, the blower motor was in most cases no longer needed. IEEE and JEDEC finally made operating free-air temperature and ambient temperature synonymous. Because TI had always used the term operating free-air temperature, it was by tradition the one used on data sheets.

    The max junction temperature for SN75LVCP600S is 100C. This is the absolute max junction temperature under worst case PVT without damaging the part.

    Are you looking for a SATA re-driver that can support -40C to 95C? Please let me check and see if we have a solution.

    Thanks
