Temperature of the backplate (°C)
The NPS Series Resistors must be attached to a suitable heat-
sink. The maximum internal resistor temperature is 175°C.
To specify an appropriate heatsink use the following formula :
R
qH
= T
MAX
- ( P x R
qR
) - T
A
P
Where:
R
qH
= Thermal Resistance of Heatsink ( K/W )
R
qR
= Thermal Resistance of Resistor ( K/W )
T
MAX
= Maximum Temperature of Resistor
T
A
= Ambient Temperature of Heatsink ( °C )
P = Power Through Resistor ( W )
