Description

In an effort to standardize integrated-circuit (IC) package thermal-measurement methods JEDEC has released standards for test-board designs. Typical thermal metrics reported are package thermal resistance from junction to ambient (theta sub JA) and package thermal resistance from junction-to-case (theta sub JC). Recent data generated by Texas Instruments (TI) linear and logic package designers i
