The IC I am designing has a power mos inside it. Half the power loss is in the MOSFET and half in the bonding wires to connect the MOSFET. When calculating the junction temperature of the chip based on the package Theta-JA and the ambient temperature, should I ignore the loss on the bonding wires and just consider the loss in the MOSFET itself? Or should I add the bonding wire loss too since the bonding wire is inside the package?
Thanks in advance!
