Where
P
AVG
= average power into the external power dump resistor (Watts)
P
PEAK
= peak power into the external power dump resistor (Watts)
t
D
= deceleration time (Seconds)
t
C
= cycle time or time between each deceleration event (Seconds)
Important — Under normal operation the external power-dump resistor
could operate in excess of 200 °C. Keep the resistor away from thermally
sensitive components, such as cables or plastic hardware.
Proper installation may require the use of thermal compound and proper
thermal connection to a heat absorbing metal surface.
