STM32WB55CX Thermal Information

The maximum chip junction temperature (T J max) must never exceed the values given in Table 24: General operating conditions .

The maximum chip-junction temperature, T J max, in degrees Celsius, can be calculated using the equation:

$$T_J\text{ max} = T_A\text{ max} + (P_D\text{ max} \times \Theta_{JA})$$
