PIMP32-QX

Overview

The PIMP32-Q is a PNP/PNP Resistor-Equipped double Transistor (RET) housed in an SOT457 (SC-74) surface-mounted package. It features built-in bias resistors with R1 at 2.2 kΩ and R2 at 10 kΩ, providing a ratio of 4.55. The device supports a collector-emitter voltage of -50 V and an output current of -500 mA per transistor. Total power dissipation reaches 420 mW for the device and 290 mW per transistor at 25 °C. It includes a DC current gain of 70 minimum and a transition frequency of 140 MHz typical.

Feature Summary

• AEC-Q101 qualified for automotive applications
• Integrated bias resistors simplify circuit design
• Reduces component count and pick-and-place costs

Applications

• Digital applications
• Control of IC inputs
• Switching loads

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against the manufacturer's official documentation to ensure correct packaging and tape-and-reel specifications. Confirm that the AEC-Q101 qualification status aligns with your project's automotive reliability requirements before finalizing procurement decisions.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a dual PNP configuration with integrated biasing is required in a compact SC-74 footprint. Ensure the -50 V collector-emitter voltage and -500 mA current ratings meet the load requirements. Consider the thermal resistance values if operating near ambient temperature limits.

Part Context

This part serves as the PNP/PNP complement within the PIMP32 series. It pairs with the NPN/NPN variant PIMN32-Q and the NPN/PNP variant PIMC32-Q. All variants share similar electrical characteristics and packaging constraints while offering different transistor polarity combinations for diverse logic interface needs.

Replacement Considerations

Direct replacements include PIMN32-Q for NPN/NPN configurations or PIMC32-Q for NPN/PNP setups. Verify pin compatibility and resistor values when substituting across these complementary types.
