TS4995
Application information
Note:
Therefore, the power dissipated by each amplifier is:
Pdiss = Psupply - Pout (W)
Pdiss
=
2--------2----V----C----C--
π RL
Pout–Pout
and the maximum value is obtained when:
∂----P----d----i-s----s---
∂Pout
=
0
and its value is:
Equation 3
Pdiss max
=
2 Vcc2
π2RL
(W)
This maximum value is only dependent on the power supply voltage and load values.
The efficiency is the ratio between the output power and the power supply:
Equation 4
η=
-----P----o---u---t---
Psupply
=
--π----V----p---e---a---k-
4VCC
The maximum theoretical value is reached when Vpeak = VCC, so:
η= -π--- = 78.5%

The maximum die temperature allowable for the TS4995 is 125° C. However, in case of
overheating, a thermal shutdown set to 150° C, puts the TS4995 in standby until the
temperature of the die is reduced by about 5° C.
To calculate the maximum ambient temperature Tamb allowable, you need to know:
● The power supply voltage, VCC
● The load resistor value, RL
● The package type, Rthja
Example: VCC=5 V, RL=8 Ω, Rthja-flipchip= 100° C/W (100 mm2 copper heatsink).
Using the power dissipation formula given above in Equation 3, this gives a result of:
Pdissmax = 633mW
Tamb is calculated as follows:
Equation 5
Tamb= 125° C – Rthja × Pdissmax
Therefore, the maximum allowable value for Tamb is:
Tamb = 125-100x0.633=61.7° C
