Copy of Coordinated Electrical and Thermal Design for a Linear Regulator Circuit - on Wed, 11/18/2020 - 14:38 1144097sDesigner236619 × 1144097s Member for 3 years 5 months 3 designs 1 groups Add a bio to your profile to share information about yourself with other SystemVision users. https://explore.partquest.com/node/380212 <iframe allowfullscreen="true" referrerpolicy="origin-when-cross-origin" frameborder="0" width="100%" height="720" scrolling="no" src="https://explore.partquest.com/node/380212"></iframe> Title Description <p>This design example demonstrates electro-thermal trade-off analysis for power dissipating circuits. The design includes a 3.3V linear regulator that drives up to 1A of load current. To reduce the input voltage to the regulator and thereby reduce its power dissipation, a series NPN transistor with a zener diode controlling its base voltage is used.</p> <p>To explore the design trade-offs, the user can change the zener voltage and re-run the simulation. This will result in not only a change to the electrical voltage split across the transistor and regulator, but also a corresponding change to their observed junction temperatures. The user can also change the values of the thermal resistances (from case to ambient*) for those components, to identify the heat-sink or other thermal mitigation required to meet all the design constraints of this circuit.</p> <p>The user can also change the circuit's operating environment, including the battery voltage, the ambient temperature and the load resistance (initial and pulse values).</p> <p>*Note: The junction to case thermal resistances are specified by the manufacturer for these parts, so they cannot be changed by the circuit's thermal designer.</p> About text formats Tags electro-thermalLinear Regulator Select a tag from the list or create your own.Drag to re-order taxonomy terms.
