All Devices: What exactly does "Storage Temperature (Ambient)" mean?




  • Storage Temperature - temperature of the device when the power is OFF

  • Ambient Temperature - temperature of the surroundings

  • Operating Temperature - temperature of the device when the power is ON

  • Storage Temperature (Ambient) - temperature of the surroundings when the power is OFF

  • When referring to "Storage Temperature" only, we refer to Ambient Temperature, TA

  • When referring to "Operating Temperature" only, we refer to Junction Temperature, TJ

  • In FPGA-TN-02044-4.5, the following equations were used:

    • The TA being referred to is the temperature of the surroundings when the power is ON
