7.3.1.2 RMS Current Rating

The rms (average) current is determined by the thermal considerations of the IC. The rms current is calculated based on the RDS(ON), rise and fall time, PWM frequency, device quiescent current, and package thermal performance in a typical system at 25°C. The real operating rms current may be higher or lower depending on heatsinking and ambient temperature. For the DRV8881, the rms current rating is 1.4 A per bridge. In parallel mode, the DRV8881P is capable of double the rms output current, or 2.8 A.
