lm7805, at 10v input voltage, how warm should this component get?

@copilot lm7805, at 10v input voltage, how warm should this component get?
1y
The LM7805 linear voltage regulator will convert 10V input to a steady 5V output. The power dissipation ($P$) can be calculated using the formula:
P=(VinVout)×IloadP = (V_{\text{in}} - V_{\text{out}}) \times I_{\text{load}}
Where:
  • $V_{\text{in}} = 10V$
  • $V_{\text{out}} = 5V$
  • $I_{\text{load}}$ is the load current.
Let’s assume a load current of 1A for our calculation, which is a typical use case.
Then:
P=(10V5V)×1A=5WP = (10V - 5V) \times 1A = 5W
This 5W of power needs to be dissipated as heat by the LM7805. The temperature rise can be estimated from the thermal resistance of the package. The junction-to-ambient thermal resistance ($\theta_{JA}$) for the LM7805 is typically around $50 , \text{°C/W}$ for a TO-220 package without any additional heatsink.
The estimated temperature rise ($\Delta T$) can be calculated as:
ΔT=P×θJA=5W×50°C/W=250°C\Delta T = P \times \theta_{JA} = 5W \times 50 \, \text{°C/W} = 250 \, \text{°C}
However, this significant rise indicates the necessity of a heatsink or improved ventilation, as the device could exceed its maximum junction temperature, leading to thermal shutdown or damage.
With a heatsink, the $\theta_{JA}$ significantly drops depending on the heatsink's efficiency. For example, with a heatsink reducing $\theta_{JA}$ to $10 , \text{°C/W}$:
ΔT=5W×10°C/W=50°C\Delta T = 5W \times 10 \, \text{°C/W} = 50 \, \text{°C}
This makes it more manageable, keeping the device temperatures within safe limits.
Summary:
  • Without a heatsink: Estimated rise of 250°C, likely excessive, needs a heatsink.
  • With an efficient heatsink: Estimated rise of 50°C.
If you have the specific $\theta_{JA}$ for your setup, you can replace it in the formula for a more accurate estimate. Let me know if you need calculations for other load currents or more details!

please calculate the temperature with a current of 0.05A

With a load current of 0.05A (50mA), we can calculate the power dissipation and subsequent temperature rise.
  1. Calculate Power Dissipation:
P=(VinVout)×IloadP = (V_{\text{in}} - V_{\text{out}}) \times I_{\text{load}}
Substituting the values:
P=(10V5V)×0.05A=5V×0.05A=0.25WP = (10V - 5V) \times 0.05A = 5V \times 0.05A = 0.25W
  1. Calculate Temperature Rise Without a Heatsink:
Considering $\theta_{JA} = 50 , \text{°C/W}$ for the TO-220 package without a heatsink:
ΔT=P×θJA=0.25W×50°C/W=12.5°C\Delta T = P \times \theta_{JA} = 0.25W \times 50 \, \text{°C/W} = 12.5 \, \text{°C}
This means the LM7805 would experience a temperature rise of 12.5°C above ambient temperature if operated at 0.05A without a heatsink.
  1. Calculate Temperature Rise With a Heatsink:
Suppose we use a heatsink that brings the junction-to-ambient thermal resistance down to $10 , \text{°C/W}$:
ΔT=P×θJA=0.25W×10°C/W=2.5°C\Delta T = P \times \theta_{JA} = 0.25W \times 10 \, \text{°C/W} = 2.5 \, \text{°C}
Summary:
  • Without a heatsink: Estimated temperature rise is 12.5°C above ambient.
  • With a heatsink: Estimated temperature rise is 2.5°C above ambient.
At this current level (0.05A), the LM7805 should remain relatively cool, even without a heatsink, generally safe in most applications. Let me know if you need further calculations or additional details!
