Thermal Information
Θja
junction-to-ambient thermal resistance
41.25℃/W
Ψjt
junction-to-top characterization parameter
1.34℃/W
Θja is obtained in a simulation on a JEDEC-standard 2s2p board as specified inJESD-51.
The Θja number listed above gives an estimate of how much temperature rise is expected if the
device was mounted on a standard JEDEC board.
When mounted on the actual PCB, the Θja value of JEDEC board is totally different than the
Θja value of actual PCB.
Ψjt is extracted from the simulation data to obtain Θja using a procedure described in JESD-51,
which estimates the junction temperature of a device in an actual PCB.
~Co
The thermal characterization parameter, Ψjt, is proportional to the temperature difference
between the top of the package and the junction temperature. Hence, it is useful value for an
engineer verifying device temperature in an actual PCB environment as described in JEDEC
JESD-51-12.
When Greek letters are not available, Ψjt is written Psi-jt.
Definition:
nfid
e nti
al~
Where :
Ψjt (Psi-jt) = Junction-to-Top(of the package) C/W
Tj= Die Junction Temp. C
Tt= Top of package Temp at center. C
Pd= Power dissipation. Watts
Practically, most of the device heat goes into the PCB, there is a very low heat flow through top
of the package, So the temperature difference between Tj and Tt shall be small, that is any error
caused by PCB variation is small.
This constant represents that Ψjt is completely PCB independent and could be used to predict
the Tj in the environment of the actual PCB if Tt is measured properly.

How to predict Tj in the environment of the actual PCB
Step 1 : Used the simulated Ψjt value listed above.
Step 2 : Measure Tt value by using
Thermocouple Method
We recommend use of a small ~40 gauge(3.15mil diameter) thermocouple. The bead and
thermocouples wires should touch the top of the package and be covered with a minimal
amount of thermally conductive epoxy. The wires should be heat-insulated to prevent
cooling of the bead due to heat loss into wires. This is important towards preventing “too
cool” Tt measurements, which would lead to the calculated Tj also being too cool.
IR Spot Method
An IR Spot method should be utilized only when using a tool with a small enough spot area
to acquire the true top center “hot spot”.
Many so-called “small spot size” tools still have a measurement area of 0~100+mils at
“zero” distance of the tool from the surface. This spot area is too big for many smaller
packages and likely would result in cooler readings than the small
thermocouple
method. Consequently, to match between spot area and package surface size is important

Step 3 : calculating power dissipation by
e nti
P (VCC–|Vo_Hi – Vo_Lo|) x Iout + VCC x Icc
al~
Step 4 : Estimate Tj value by
Tj= Ψjt x P+Tt
Step 5: Calculated Θja value of actual PCB by the known Tj
Θja(actual) = (Tj-Ta)/P

1. Reverse connection of power supply may break the device. A countermeasure is needed
such as using reverse current protection diode (D1) between power supply and VCC
terminal.
The BEMF causes re-circulate current to power supply, when power-on or output changes.
It may cause VCC terminal to raise voltage, especially using reverse current protection
diode (D1) because there is no way to return current back to power supply. In such case,
please take necessary measures like below.
2. Connect a Zener diode (ZD1) between VCC and GND terminal not to exceed the absolute
maximum rating voltage.
3. Connect a capacitor (C1) between VCC and GND terminal to make a path of return current
to power supply.
4. Open drain output. A pull-up resistances of 10kΩ should be inserted.

Soft switching function (silent drive setting)
Input signal to hall amplifier is amplified to produce an output signal.
When the hall element output signal is small, the gradient of switching of output waveform is gentle;
When it is large on the contrary, the gradient of switching of output waveform is steep. Gain of 500
times (Typ.) is provided between input and output, therefore enter an appropriate hall element
output to IC where output waveform swings sufficiently.

capacitor like C1 in Fig.10. In addition, when wiring from the hall element output to IC hall input is

When PWM terminal is open, H logic is applied.
PWM terminal has hysteresis of 100mV (Typ.).
If H logic is applied to PWM terminal before Vcc voltage is applied to IC, current flows to Vcc
terminal through ESD protection diode inside PWM terminal, resulting in malfunction may possibly
occur.

Notes
1) Absolute maximum ratings
This product is produced with strict quality control, but destroyed in using beyond absolute
maximum ratings. Once IC destroyed, a failure mode cannot be defined (like short-mode or
open-mode).Therefore, physical security counter measure, like fuse, is to be given when a
specific mode to be beyond absolute maximum rating is considered.
2) Reverse connection of power supply
Reverse connection of the power supply may break the device. A countermeasure is needed
such as using reverse current protection diodes between the power supply and the VCC terminal.
3) Power supply line
The BEMF causes re-circulate current to power supply, Please connect a capacitor between
power supply and GND as a route of re-circulate current. And please determine the capacitance
after confirmation that the capacitance does not causes any problems.
4) GND potential
The GND terminal should be the location of the lowest voltage on the chip.
5) Thermal design
The thermal design should allow enough margin for actual power dissipation.
6) Mounting failures
Mounting failures, such as misdirection or miss-mounts, may destroy the device.
The electrical short caused by falling particle, between outputs; power supply and output; or
output and ground, may damage the device.
