"Steady-state" conditions assume that the motor driver operates with a constant RMS current over a long period of time. Figure 8-3, Figure 8-4, Figure 8-5, and Figure 8-6 show how RθJA and ΨJB (junction-to-board characterization parameter) change depending on copper area, copper thickness, and number of layers of the PCB for the HTSSOP package. More copper area, more layers, and thicker copper planes decrease RθJA and ΨJB, which indicate better thermal performance from the PCB layout.
