  • Abstract
    IN THE DESIGN of circuits utilizing power transistors, the maximum allowable instantaneous junction temperature is often the major limitation on the power-carrying capabilities of the circuit. Transistor failure may result if the junction temperature exceeds, even momentarily, a certain maximum value.
