100msThere are two limitations on the power handling ability o f
a transistor: average junction temperature and second
breakdown. 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
dissipation than the curves indicate.
The data of Figure 1 is based on TJ(pk) = 150°C. TC is
variable depending on conditions. Second breakdown pulse
limits are valid for duty cycles to 10% provided
TJ(pk) 150°C. At high case temperatures, thermal
limitations will reduce the power that can be handled to
values less than the limitations imposed by second
breakdown.
