FIGURE 3. Solder Reflow Temperature and Time Durations THERMAL PERFORMANCE A basic measure of a device’s thermal performance is the On-Resistance vs. Junction Temperature junction-to-case thermal resistance, Rqjc, or the 1.6 junction-to-foot thermal resistance, Rqjf. This parameter is VGS = 4.5 V measured for the device mounted to an infinite heat sink and ID = 6.1 A is therefore a characterization of the device only, in other 1.4 words, independent of the properties of the object to which the device is mounted. Table 1 shows the thermal performance of the TSOP-6. 1.2 − On-Resiistance (Normalized) 1.0 TABLE 1.
