CURVES APPLY BELOW RATED VCEO

There are two limitations on the power handling ability of a

transistor: average junction temperature and second break-

down. Safe operating area curves indicate IC – VCE limits of

the transistor that must be observed for reliable operation;

i.e., the transistor must not be subjected to greater dissipa-

tion than the curves indicate.

The data of Figure 1 is based on TJ (pk) = 200_C; TC is

variable depending on conditions. At high case temper-

atures, thermal limitations will reduce the power that can be

handled to values less than the limitations imposed by

second breakdown.
