AN4017 - Understanding Temperature Specifications: An Introduction
AN4017 gives a basic understanding of the temperature specifications found in Cypress's product datasheets. There are many factors that affect the thermal operation of a device. This application note also gives you an understanding of the thermal parameters and temperature specifications of the device.
This document describes the various thermal parameters namely Ambient Temperature (Ta), Case Temperature (Tc), Junction Temperature(Tj), Thermal Resistance, Power Dissipation etc.
Details on calculating Junction Temperature are provided in this application note.
