PMP5201Y-QF

Overview

The PMP5201Y-Q is a PNP/PNP matched double transistor housed in a SOT363-3 (TSSOP6) surface-mounted plastic package. It features a collector-emitter voltage of -45 V and a continuous collector current of -100 mA per transistor. The DC current gain ranges from 200 to 450 at VCE = -5 V and IC = -2 mA. Key matching characteristics include a DC current gain ratio (hFE1/hFE2) between 0.98 and 1.02, and a base-emitter voltage difference (VBE1−VBE2) limited to ±2 mV under specified conditions. The device operates within an ambient temperature range of -65 °C to 150 °C and is qualified according to AEC-Q101 for automotive applications.

Feature Summary

• Current gain and base-emitter voltage matching between internal transistors
• Application-optimized pinout configuration
• AEC-Q101 qualification for automotive use

Applications

• Current mirror circuits
• Differential amplifier stages

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against the manufacturer's latest documentation to ensure correct package version and manufacturing site code. Confirm that the SOT363-3 package variant matches the design requirements, as revision history indicates potential package changes. Ensure all electrical parameters align with the target application's operating conditions before finalizing procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this component when precise matching between two PNP transistors is required for analog signal processing. The low base-emitter voltage mismatch makes it suitable for precision current mirrors. Verify that the -45 V rating and -100 mA current limits accommodate the circuit's peak stresses. Consider the thermal resistance values if operating in high-power environments without adequate PCB heat sinking.

Part Context

This part belongs to Nexperia's portfolio of matched double transistors designed for compact surface-mount applications. The SOT363-3 package provides a small footprint while maintaining electrical performance suitable for modern electronic designs. It serves as a discrete alternative to integrated differential pairs or matched transistor arrays in space-constrained boards.

Replacement Considerations

Check for direct substitutes with identical pinouts and matching specifications. Verify that any replacement maintains the same AEC-Q101 qualification if used in automotive contexts. Ensure the alternative device supports the required -45 V collector-emitter voltage and similar hFE matching tolerances.
