BD9152MUV
Technical Note
●Consideration on permissible dissipation and heat generation
As this IC functions with high efficiency without significant heat generation in most applications, no special consideration is
needed on permissible dissipation or heat generation. In case of extreme conditions, however, including lower input voltage,
higher output voltage, heavier load, and/or higher temperature, the permissible dissipation and/or heat generation must be
carefully considered.
For dissipation, only conduction losses due to DC resistance of inductor and ON resistance of FET are considered. Because
the conduction losses are considered to play the leading role among other dissipation mentioned above including gate
charge/discharge dissipation and switching dissipation.

P=IOUT²Ã—RON
RON=D×RONP+(1-D)RONN
D：ON duty (=VOUT/VCC)
RONH：ON resistance of Highside MOS FET
RONL：ON resistance of Lowside MOS FET
IOUT：Output current
(Example) VCC=5V, VOUT1=3.3V, VOUT2=1.2V, RONH=170mΩ, RONL=130mΩ
IOUT=1.5A, for example,
D1=VOUT1/VCC=3.3/5=0.66
D2=VOUT2/VCC=1.2/5=0.24
RON1=0.66×0.170+(1-0.66)×0.130
=0.1122+0.0442
=0.1564[Ω]
RON2=0.24×0.170+(1-0.24)×0.130
=0.0408+0.0988
=0.1397[Ω]
P=1.5²Ã—0.1564+1.5²Ã—0.1397=0.666[W]
As RONH is greater than RONL in this IC, the dissipation increases as the ON duty becomes greater. With the
consideration on the dissipation as above, thermal design must be carried out with sufficient margin allowed.
