There is no any specific timeframe or minimum required to spent outside of the United States before traveling again on a Visa Waiver. It's decided based on a case-by-case basis, and the CBP has discretion to deny admission to visitors who look like they are spending too much time in the USA and/or don't maintain residence abroad.
