ZHCSE74C September 2015 – May 2025 LMK61E2
PRODUCTION DATA
The LMK61E2 is a high performance device. Therefore careful attention must be paid to device configuration and printed circuit board (PCB) layout with respect to power consumption. The ground pin needs to be connected to the ground plane of the PCB through three vias or more, as shown in Figure 9-3, to maximize thermal dissipation out of the package.
Equation 3 describes the relationship between the PCB temperature around the LMK61E2 and the junction temperature.
where
To verify that the maximum junction temperature of LMK61E2 is below 125°C, the temperature can be calculated that the maximum PCB temperature without airflow must be at 100°C or below when the device is optimized for best performance resulting in maximum on-chip power dissipation of 0.68W.
