There are two limitations on the power handling ability of
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 Figures 12 and 13 is based on TC = 25_C;
TJ(pk) is variable depending on power level. Second
breakdown pulse limits are valid for duty cycles to 10% but
must be derated for temperature according to Figure 1.
