1. Consider an electronic equipment that has ICs with a maximum junction temperature rating of
125 deg C. The maximum circuit board temperature rise above the outside room ambient is
measured to be 35 deg C.
The heat dissipation and the thermal impedance of some of the representative ICs is given below:
IC #1
IC #2
IC #3
0.5 W
2.0 W
1.0 W
50 deg C / W
18 deg C / W
40 deg C / W
