摘要：

We present an unified electro-thermal criterion for quantifying the stability region of bipolar transistors. The criterion can be used for process optimization or circuit design. We propose a new figure-of-merit as the maximum V-CE at which the current at peakf(T) can be applied without electro-thermal runaway.
