Scope

This application note discusses both the power consumption and thermal considerations of the SAMA7D6 Series processor. It provides system designers with a set of data measured on the SAMA7D65 standalone device and the SAMA7D65 Series SiP devices.

This document complements the SAMA7G5 Series Power Consumption and Thermal Considerations application note (see Reference Documents), where the reader can find useful reminders about the basic thermal theory of integrated circuits as well as thermal design guidance for hardware and software.
