Use of JEDEC Thermal Metrics in Calculating Chip Temperatures (without Attached Heat Sinks)
Bruce Guenin Assoc. Technical Editor, Electronics Cooling INTRODUCTION JEDEC single-chip package thermal metrics are widely used as a means of characterizing the thermal performance of semiconductor packages. They correlate the peak temperature of a uniformly-heated semiconductor chip (the junction temperature, TJ) with the temperature of a specified region along the heat … [Read more...]
