DESCRIPTION
The parametric values in the R-C thermal model have been derived using curve-fitting techniques. These techniques are described in "A Simple Method of Generating Thermal Models for a Power MOSFET"[1].
When implemented in P-Spice, these values have matching characteristic curves to the Single Pulse Transient Thermal Impedance curves for the MOSFET.
R-C values for the electrical circuit in the Foster/Tank configuration are included. The corresponding values for the Cauer/Filter configuration are available upon request.
Note:
For a detailed explanation of implementing these values in
P-SPICE, refer to Application Note AN609 Thermal Simulations Of
Power MOSFETs on P-SPICE Platform.
