7.5.2 Thermal attributes
This section provides information about operating temperature range, power dissipation,
and package thermal resistance. Power dissipation on I/O pins is usually small compared
to the power dissipation in on-chip logic and voltage regulator circuits, and it is user-
determined rather than being controlled by the MCU design. To account for PI/O in power
calculations, determine the difference between actual pin voltage and VSS or VDD and
multiply by the pin current for each I/O pin. Except in cases of unusually high pin current
(heavy loads), the difference between pin voltage and VSS or VDD is very small.
See Thermal Design Considerations for more detail on thermal design considerations.
