Thermal Performance Versus Copper Area

The most used thermal resistance parameter RθJA is highly dependent on the heat-spreading capability built into the particular PCB design. RθJA therefore varies according to the total copper area, copper weight, and location of the planes. The RθJA recorded in the Thermal Information  table is determined by the JEDEC standard (Figure 7-6), PCB, and copper-spreading area. This parameter is only used as a relative measure of package thermal performance. For a well-designed thermal layout, RθJA is actually the sum of RθJCbot plus the thermal resistance contribution by the PCB copper. RθJCbot is the package junction-to-case (bottom) thermal resistance, as given in the Thermal Information  table.
