6. Consideration on Permissible Dissipation and Heat Generation
Since 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, (such as 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.
This is because the conduction losses are the most significant among other dissipation mentioned above including gate
charge/discharge dissipation and switching dissipation.

P  IOUT 2  RON
RON  D  RONH  1  DRONL
Where:
D is the ON duty (=VOUT/VCC).
RONH is the ON-Resistance of Highside MOSFET.
RONL is the ON-Resistance of Lowside MOSFET.
IOUT is the Output current.
If VCC=3.3V, VOUT=1.8V, RONH=60mΩ, RONL=55mΩ IOUT=4A
D  VOUT / VCC  1.8 / 3.3  0.545
RON  0.545 0.06  1 0.545 0.55
 0.0327 0.0250
 0.0577 
P  42  0.0577  0.2309 W 
Since RONH is greater than RONL in this IC, the dissipation increases as the ON duty time increases. Taking into
consideration the dissipation as shown above, thermal design must be carried out with allowable sufficient margin.
