The thermal resistance values used are based on the JEDEC JESD51 series of standards to provide consistent values for estimations and comparisons. The difference between the values determined for the single-layer (1s) board compared to a four-layer board that has two signal layers, a power and a ground plane (2s2p), demonstrate that the effective thermal resistance is not a constant. The thermal resistance depends on the:
Construction of the application board (number of planes)
Effective size of the board which cools the component
Quality of the thermal and electrical connections to the planes
Power dissipated by adjacent components
Connect all the ground and power balls to the respective planes with one via per ball. Using fewer vias to connect the package to the planes reduces the thermal performance. Thinner planes also reduce the thermal performance. When the clearance between the vias leave the planes virtually disconnected, the thermal performance is also greatly reduced.

As a general rule, the value obtained on a single-layer board is within the normal range for the tightly packed printed circuit board. The value obtained on a board with the internal planes is usually within the normal range if the application board has:
One oz. (35 micron nominal thickness) internal planes
Components are well separated
Overall power dissipation on the board is less than 0.02 W/cm

The thermal performance of any component depends on the power dissipation of the surrounding components. In addition, the ambient temperature varies widely within the application. For many natural convection and especially closed box applications, the board temperature at the perimeter (edge) of the package is approximately the same as the local air temperature near the device. Specifying the local ambient conditions explicitly as the board temperature provides a more precise description of the local ambient conditions that determine the temperature of the device.
At a known board temperature, the junction temperature is estimated using the following equation:
Equation 2 T
J
= T

= power dissipation in the package (W)
When the heat loss from the package case to the air does not factor into the calculation, an acceptable value for the junction temperature is predictable. Ensure the application board is similar to the thermal test condition, with the component soldered to a board with internal planes.
The thermal resistance is expressed as the sum of a junction-to-case thermal resistance plus a case-to-ambient thermal resistance:
Equation 3 R
JA
= R
JC
+ R

CA

is device related and is not affected by other factors. The thermal environment can be controlled to change the case-to-ambient thermal resistance, R
CA
. For example, change the air flow around the device, add a heat sink, change the mounting arrangement on the printed circuit board, or change the thermal dissipation on the printed circuit board surrounding the device. This description is most useful for packages with heat sinks where
90% of the heat flow is through the case to heat sink to ambient. For most packages, a better model is required.
A more accurate two-resistor thermal model can be constructed from the junction-to-board thermal resistance and the junction-to-case thermal resistance. The junction-to-case thermal resistance describes when using a heat sink or where a substantial amount of heat is dissipated from the top of the package. The junction-to-board thermal resistance describes the thermal performance when most of the heat is conducted to the printed circuit

To determine the junction temperature of the device in the application on a prototype board, use the thermal characterization parameter (
JT
) to determine the junction temperature by measuring the temperature at the top center of the package case using the following equation:
Equation 4 T
J
= T
T
+ (

) where:
T
T
= thermocouple temperature on top of the package ( o

P

= power dissipation in the package (W)
The thermal characterization parameter is measured in compliance with the JESD51-2 specification using a 40-gauge type T thermocouple epoxied to the top center of the package case. Position the thermocouple so that the thermocouple junction rests on the package. Place a small amount of epoxy on the thermocouple junction and approximately 1 mm of wire extending from the junction. Place the thermocouple wire flat against the package case to avoid measurement errors caused by the cooling effects of the thermocouple wire.
