2N3019 Temperature-Power Derating Chart
2N3019 Transistor Derating Curves

The graph describes the Temperature-Power derating curve for a 2N3019 in a TO-18 metal package. The 2N3019 will operate at full power from -65 to +250C, but above 25C power dissipation must be reduce to comply with the curves until 200C is reached. Note at the upper limit of its temperature ranges, 200C, the 2N3019 must not dissipate any power.
Affixing a heat sink to the TO-18 will allow the 2N3019 to operate at a higher temperature with a higher power dissipation [effectively changing the slope of the curve]. The actual gain in power dissipation will depend on the particular heat sink selected.
The chart covers device heating in free-air, so applying forced air by adding a fan to the system will also allow the 2N3019 to operate at a higher temperature at the same dissipation. However; the reverse is also true, if the 2N3019 is placed within an enclosed chassis, power dissipation must be decreased as the air flow is being restricted.
