SN74LVC32A: Tjmax spec

Part Number: SN74LVC32A
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: SN74LVC1G3157,

Hello Team,

Can you provide the Tjmax of our SN74LVC32A and SN74LVC1G3157 for long time work spec to me, there is no this spec in our datasheets? thanks.

Regards,

Nanfang

  • Hello

    Thanks, the answer for this question is as below, but my customer uses these logic devices without the datasheet rated values, such as the ambient temperature is higher than 85C. Customer think the power comsuption of the logic devices should be very low, and when the ambient temperature over spec, maybe it also within Tjmax, so our part can also work. Do you know what are the Tjmax of these two devices for long time work?



    For logic devices, TJ(max) is equal to the maximum storage temperature (Tstg(max)) as listed in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table of the datasheet unless otherwise specified.

    It is extremely unlikely for any logic device to ever reach its maximum junction temperature while being operated within the datasheet rated values. I will keep this short, but suffice it to say that if you operate a logic device at its maximum datasheet ratings for ambient temperature and output power, the junction temperature will likely still be far below the maximum allowable value.

  • If a device is rated to 85C, then we do not guarantee operation beyond that at all.
