Notes: 3. For a device surface mounted on 31mm x 31mm (10cm[2] ) FR4 PCB with high coverage of single sided 1oz copper, in still air conditions; the device is measured when operating in a steady-state condition.  The entire exposed collector pad is attached to the heatsink. 

4. Same as note (3), except the device is measured at t ≤ 5 sec. 

5. For a single device, thermal resistance from junction to solder-point (at the end of the drain lead).
