SWITCHING TIMES NOTE
NPN SILICON TRANSISTOR
In resistive switching circuits, rise, fall, and storage times have been defined and apply to both current and voltage
waveforms since they are in phase. However, for inductive loads, which are common to SWITCHMODE power
supplies and hammer drivers, current and voltage waveforms are not in phase. Therefore, separate measurements
must be made on each waveform to determine the total switching time. For this reason, the following new terms
have been defined.
t
SV
= Voltage Storage Time, 90% I
B1
to 10% Vclamp
t
RV
= Voltage Rise Time, 10 ~ 90% Vclamp
t
FI
= Current Fall Time, 90 ~ 10% I
C
t
TI
= Current Tail, 10 ~ 2% I
C
t
C
= Crossover Time, 10% Vclamp to 10% I
C
For the designer, there is minimal switching loss during storage time and the predominant switching power losses
occur during the crossover interval and can be obtained using the standard equation from AN–222:
PSWT = 1/2 V
CC
I
C
(t
C
) f
In general, t
RV
+ t
FI
≈
t
C
. However, at lower test currents this relationship may not be valid.
As is common with most switching transistors, resistive switching is specified at 25°C and has become a
benchmark for designers. However, for designers of high frequency converter circuits, the user oriented
specifications which make this a “SWITCHMODE” transistor are the inductive switching speeds (t
C
and t
SV
) which
are guaranteed at 100°C.

SAFE OPERATING AREA INFORMATION
FORWARD BIAS
NPN SILICON TRANSISTOR
There are two limitations on the power handling ability of a transistor: average junction temperature and second
breakdown. Safe operating area curves indicate I
C
-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 Figure 5 is based on T
C
= 25°C; T
J(PK)
is variable depending on power level. Second breakdown pulse
limits are valid for duty cycles to 10% but must be derated when T
C
≥25°C.
Second breakdown limitations do not
derate the same as thermal limitations. Allowable current at the voltages shown on Figure 5.
T
J(PK)
may be calculated from the data in Figure 4. At high case temperatures, thermal limitations will reduce the
power that can be handled to values less than the limitations imposed by second breakdown.
REVERSE BIAS
For inductive loads, high voltage and high current must be sustained simultaneously during turn-off, in most cases,
with the base to emitter junction reverse biased. Under these conditions the collector voltage must be held to a safe
level at or below a specific value of collector current. This can be accomplished by several means such as active
clamping, RC snubbing, load line shaping, etc. The safe level for these devices is specified as Reverse Bias Safe
Operating Area and represents the voltage-current conditions during reverse biased turn-off. This rating is verified
under clamped conditions so that the device is never subjected to an avalanche mode. Figure 6 gives PBSOA
characteristics.
The Safe Operating Area of Figures 5 and 6 are specified ratings (for these devices under the test conditions
shown.)
