the maximum simultaneous drain–to–source voltage and
drain current that a transistor can handle safely when it is for-
ward biased. Curves are based upon maximum peak junc-
tion temperature and a case temperature (T C ) of 25 C. Peak
repetitive pulsed power limits are determined by using the
thermal response data in conjunction with the procedures
discussed in AN569, “Transient Thermal Resistance–Gener-
al Data and Its Use.”

able operation, the stored energy from circuit inductance dis-
sipated in the transistor while in avalanche must be less than
the rated limit and adjusted for operating conditions differing
from those specified. Although industry practice is to rate in
terms of energy, avalanche energy capability is not a con-
stant. The energy rating decreases non–linearly with an in-
crease of peak current in avalanche and peak junction
temperature.
to–source avalanche at currents up to rated pulsed current
(I DM ), the energy rating is specified at rated continuous cur-
rent (I D ), in accordance with industry custom. The energy rat-
ing must be derated for temperature as shown in the
accompanying graph (Figure 12). Maximum energy at cur-
rents below rated continuous I D can safely be assumed to
equal the values indicated.
