Thermal Considerations
Basic Thermal Performance
The DW025-Series Dual Output Power Modules have a
separate power stage for each of the outputs. This
means that the maximum operating temperature can
be predicted quite closely by treating each output indi-
vidually and then summing the results. Figures 16
through 21 are used to predict the safe operating con-
dition for many different operating and environmental
conditions.
The method used to determine the maximum ambient
temperature at a given air velocity is a four-step pro-
cess.
1. Find the power dissipated for output 1 by using the
2. Repeat step 1 for output 2 using Figures 16 through
3. Find the total power dissipated by summing the
4. Use the total power dissipated with Figure 20 to
For example, the DW025AF-M power module operating
at full load on both outputs with 54 V input has a power
dissipation of 3.6 W (from Figure 17) plus 3.1 W (from
Figure 16) for a total of 6.7 W. Using Figure 20, it can
be determined that the maximum ambient temperature
at natural convection that the DW025AF-M can operate
at is approximately 56 °C.
Keep in mind that these are approximations of the tem-
peratures and airflows required to keep the case tem-
perature below its maximum rating. The maximum case
temperature at the point shown in Figure 15 must be
kept at 100 °C or less.

Air Velocity
The air velocity required to maintain a desired maxi-
mum case temperature for a given power dissipation
and ambient temperature can be calculated using
Figure 21 and the following equation:

For example, to maintain a maximum case temperature
of 85 °C with an ambient inlet temperature of 55 °C and
a power dissipation of 6.7 W, the thermal resistance is:
