Procedure for power derating based on terminal part temperature

The terminal part temperature, which reflects such influences accurately, is suitable as a reference for power derating of SMD resistors. Controlling the temperature of SMD resistors according to the terminal part temperature will prevent them from damage and allows to determine the proper size and number of resistors needed for each application. This Technical Note explains the procedure for power derating based on the terminal part temperature.
