16-channel Constant Current LED Sink Driver
Package Power Dissipation (PD)
The maximum allowable package power dissipation is determined as PD(max) = (Tj – Ta) / Rth(j-a). When 16 output
channels are turned on simultaneously, the actual package power dissipation is PD(act) = (IDD x VDD) + (IOUT x Duty
x VDS x 16). Therefore, to keep PD(act) ≤ PD(max), the allowable maximum output current as a function of duty cycle
is:
IOUT = { [ (Tj – Ta) / Rth(j-a) ] – (IDD x VDD) } / VDS / Duty / 16, where Tj = 150°C.
