thermal issue with 10M50DAF484I7G - thermal issue with 10M50DAF484I7G I'm using the max10 (10M50DAF484I7G), can I cool the max10 via GND and power pins to the PCB, like they do with regulators? as my thermal simulation and calculation got Tj more than 100°C the data: power max 4.82W Tj max 100°C by datasheet Rja is 17.3 °C/W for 400 ft/min - datasheet the simulation calculate the airflow on the MAX10 is 2 m/s (this is ~400 ft/min) for max power and 48° and 44 CFM --> Tj=Ta+(PxRja) --> 48°C + (4.8W x 17.3) = 131°C can I use the 56 GND pins for cooling thx Alon Heqa Replies: Re: thermal issue with 10M50DAF484I7G ok, I found my typo typical 1.75W and max of 2.3W sound like the right number thx Alon Replies: Re: thermal issue with 10M50DAF484I7G Hi, how did you arrive at 4.8 W power dissipation. The value sounds rather high, is it achieved by power analysis of an actual design?
