power audio, stepping motor and other linear applications. These
devices can also be used in power switching circuits such as relay or
solenoid drivers, dc–to–dc converters, inverters, or for inductive loads
requiring higher safe operating area than the 2N3055.

There are two limitations on the power handling ability of
a transistor: average junction temperature and second
breakdown. Safe Operating area curves indicate IC – V
CE
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 T

breakdown pulse limits are valid for duty cycles to 10% but
