Thread starter Splendor Start date May 21, Splendor Administrator Staff member. Junction temperature Tj : The temperature of the junction of the LED die inside the semiconductor package.

Direct measurement of Tj is impractical but can be calculated based on a known case or board temperature and the materials' thermal resistance. Case temperature Tc or Ts : This is the temperature of the case of the semiconductor device. Solder point temperature Tsp : The temperature of the thermal pad on the bottom of the LED lighting system.

Tsp is also called case temperature Tc. You must log in or register to reply here. Similar threads. Replies 0 Views
