TPSM64406: Request For Additional Thermal Characterization Parameters

Part Number: TPSM64406
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TPSM63606,

Section 6.4 (Thermal Information) of the December 2023 datasheet only lists two metrics for the package/device thermal information.

Datasheets for other devices (e.g. TPSM63606) in this series also list a Junction-to-Top Characterization parameter which is very useful when evaluating/simulating the use of the device.

Can the factory please provide additional thermal metrics and information for the TPSM64406 and its RCH/QFN-FCMOD package?

Specifically, I would like the Junction-to-top characterization parameter.

Thank you.

Regards,

M

  • Hello,

    Let me look into that with the systems engineer and get back to you by EOB Monday (2/26 PST).

  • Hi M,

    It is possible, but may take a bit of additional time (2-3 weeks).

    For now, you may use the infrared thermal images in the application's section of the datasheet to estimate thermal performance.

    Thanks,

    Richard

  • Richard -

    Is it valid to assume that the Junction-to-top on this device comes close to other devices in the family using a QFN-FCMOD type of package?

    While waiting for a characterization over the next few weeks, is there a package the factory can point me to that would have similar junction-to-top performance?

    How about the simulated/expected performance?  I realize the simulated number may be somewhat different than the final experimental found in lab characterization - even a simulated number that might be 10-20% off the final would be adequate for my preliminary investigations.

    For the short-term, I am just wanting to know if the expected junction-to-top performance is similar to the listed junction-to-board at ~5C/W or much (4-5x) worse?

    Please advise.

    Thanks,

    M

  • Hello M,

    I am checking with the internal team to see where the other thermal parameters are.

    Usually these parameters are simulated following JEDEC standards and published on datasheet as you've previously mentioned.

    I think there might be some filtering function that took those value off the existing datasheet so I need to look into it with the team.

    Hope to get back to you by the 28th of this week.

    Regards,

  • Hello M,

    Please use the below thermal simulation parameter for the TPSM64406 device
