The temperature inside a closed automotive may rise above 85C .

But how much of that rise is due to your chip?

For a "Mesurement signal conditioning IC", I suspect it's (virtually) none - in which case, how will turning the chip off help?

If that's the environment in which your equipment needs to work, then you need to choose parts suitably rated for it!


Though its able to work beyond 85C , but if we only make it work for a small time fraction at that elevated temperature , it would provide thermal relief to the chip.

Yes I am designing for the same environment 85C but was thinking to add this extra feature.
