How To Select a Heat Sink
Example A
Find a space saving heat sink to keep a TO-220 device below the
maximum 150°C junction temperature in natural convection. Device
will be screw mounted with an electrically conductive interface.
Example B
Find a heat sink to keep a TO-220 device below the maximum
150 °C junction temperature in forced convection at 400 ft/min.
Device must be electrically insulated and mounted with a labor
saving clip.
Given:
PD = 6 watts
R θ JC = 3°C/W (from semiconductor manufacturer)
TJ max = 150°C (from semiconductor manufacturer)
TA max = 65°C
Given:
PD = 12 watts
R θ JC = 2.5°C/W (from semiconductor manufacturer)
TJ max = 140°C (from semiconductor manufacturer)
TA max = 50°C
A Kondux TM pad is a good choice for electrically conductive
applications. Thermal resistance for Kondux TM can be determined
from the following graph.
A Hi-Flow? pad works great with clip mounting and provides the
necessary electrical insulation. Thermal resistance for
Hi-Flow? at low pressure is 1.15°C/W (from page 87).

Typical TO-220 Performance
Using equation 1, solve for R θ SA
R θ SA = 140 – 50 - (2.5 + 1.15) = 3.85°C/W

fits the application and verify thermal resistance from graph.
Part number 593202B03500G shows
a 60 °C temperature rise at 6 watts.
According to the above graph, an airflow of 400 ft/min results
in a thermal resistance of 3°C/W. This is less than the required
thermal resistance of 3.85°C/W and is therefore acceptable
under these airflow conditions.
