APPLICATIONS
low dropout applications the power dissipation will be less
than 12W.
The power in the device is made up of two main compo-
nents: the power in the output transistor and the power in
the drive circuit. The additional power in the control circuit
is negligible.
The power in the drive circuit will be equal to:

Junction-to-case thermal resistance is specified from the
IC junction to the bottom of the case directly below the die.
This is the lowest resistance path for heat flow. Proper
mounting is required to ensure the best possible thermal
flow from this area of the package to the heat sink. Thermal
compound at the case-to-heat sink interface is strongly
recommended. If the case of the device must be electroni-
cally isolated, a thermally conductive spacer can be used
as long as the added contribution to thermal resistance is
considered. Please consult Linear Technology’s “ Mount-
ing Considerations for Power Semiconductors,” 1990
Linear Applications Handbook, Volume 1 , Pages RR3-1 to
RR3-20. Note that the case of the LT1580 is electrically
connected to the output.
