Maximum ratings are those values beyond which device damage can occur.
Maximum ratings applied to the device are individual stress limit values (not
normal operating conditions) and are not valid simultaneously . If these limits are
exceeded, device functional operation is not implied, damage may occur and
reliability may be affected.

Figure 1. Active−Region Safe Operating Area
TC = 25°C
There are two limitations on the powerhandling ability of
a transistor: average junction temperature and second
breakdown. Safe operating area curves indicate I
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 T
variable depending on conditions. At high case
temperatures, thermal limitations will reduce the power that
can be handled to values less than the limitations imposed by
second breakdown.
