Assuming that cumulatively the rise time and fall time can account for a maximum of 10% of the period, the maximum

frequency allowed in this condition is:

This frequency is within the recommended frequency range the device can handle, therefore the ZXMN6A09K is

recommended to be used with the ZXLD1370 for frequencies from 300kHz to 500kHz).

The recommended total gate charge for the MOSFET used in conjunction with the ZXLD1370 is less than 30nC.

Junction temperature estimation

Finally, the ZXLD1370 junction temperature can be estimated using the following equations:

Total supply current of ZXLD1370:

Power consumed by ZXLD1370

discharge the gate of the power MOSFET. Moreover the part of thermal resistance between case and ambient depends on

the PCB characteristics.
