## **THERMAL RESISTANCE VS. MOUNTING PAD AREA**
Thermal resistances corresponding to other copper areas can be obtained from Figure 21 or by calculation using Equation 2. The area, in square inches is the top copper area including the gate and source pads.
The maximum rated junction temperature, TJM, and the thermal resistance of the heat dissipating path determines the maximum allowable device power dissipation, PDM, in an application. Therefore the application’s ambient ° ° temperature, TA ( C), and thermal resistance R�JA ( C/W) must be reviewed to ensure that TJM is never exceeded. Equation 1 mathematically represents the relationship and serves as the basis for establishing the rating of the part.
**==> picture [225 x 18] intentionally omitted <==**
The transient thermal impedance (Z�JA) is also effected by varied top copper board area. Figure 22 shows the effect of copper pad area on single pulse transient thermal impedance. Each trace represents a copper pad area in square inches corresponding to the descending list in the graph. Spice and SABER thermal models are provided for each of the listed pad areas.
**==> picture [225 x 24] intentionally omitted <==**
In using surface mount devices such as the SO8 package, the environment in which it is applied will have a significant influence on the part’s current and maximum power dissipation ratings. Precise determination of PDM is complex and influenced by many factors:
Copper pad area has no perceivable effect on transient thermal impedance for pulse widths less than 100 ms. For pulse widths less than 100 ms the transient thermal impedance is determined by the die and package. Therefore, CTHERM1 through CTHERM5 and RTHERM1 through RTHERM5 remain constant for each of the thermal models. A listing of the model component values is available in Table 1.
1. Mounting pad area onto which the device is attached and whether there is copper on one side or both sides of the board.
2. The number of copper layers and the thickness of the board.
3. The use of external heat sinks.
4. The use of thermal vias.

About Novapart
Novapart is a B2B electronic component broker specialising in stock shortages and cost reduction. We source hard-to-find parts and identify compliant alternatives across a catalogue of 410,000+ components from 500+ manufacturers.
Learn more →Stock Shortage Specialist
When a component is unavailable, discontinued or has an unacceptable lead time, we tap into our network of vetted European and Asian distributors to source what you need — without compromising on quality or traceability.
Request a quote →Compliant Alternatives
We identify pin-to-pin, electrically equivalent substitutes that meet the same certifications (RoHS, AEC-Q100, REACH) as your original specification — validated against datasheets, not just part numbers. Often at a lower cost.
