Hi the datasheet does not contain the thermal junction temperatures for the VFQFPN48, hence hard to work out the max thermal temps for the device. please can you supply

The data sheet, table 2 mentiones for the operating junction temperature Tj a range of -25...125°C.
Does it answer your question?

Hi Peter , no as the standard L6235 has a table that you can work out the IC temp for a given PCB layout. see below. without this you can not work out the IC temp. I have worked out the IC power but need this to make sure I can apply the brake without blowing the IC
cheers

I see... the thermal resistance is missing.
I don't have any data available like for the L6235, but you can probably assume an Rth(ja) of 25...50K/W, depending on whether you connect the NC pins to the cooling GND surface, use thermal vias and what type of board you use. Much more important, however, is probably Rth(j-case), which will probably be around 1.5K/W.
However, you are welcome to create a ticket with the personal Online Support OLS and request exact thermal resistance values.
Hope that helps?
