The safe operating area (SOA) of GaAs-based heterojunction bipolar transistors has been studied considering both the self-heating effect and the breakdown effect. The Kirk effect induced breakdown (KIB) was considered to account for the decrease of the breakdown voltage at high currents. With reasonable emitter ballastors, the KIB effect was shown to be the major cause for device failure at high currents,...
