RN2103,LXHF(CT

Overview

The RN2103,LXHF(CT is a PNP digital transistor manufactured by Toshiba Semiconductor and Storage, designed for automotive applications under the AEC-Q200 qualification standard. It integrates a single PNP transistor with built-in bias resistors in an SSM-3 (SOT-416) surface-mount package. Key electrical parameters include a maximum collector-emitter voltage (VCEO) of -50 V and a continuous collector current (IC) of -100 mA. The device features a typical input resistance of 22 kOhms with a resistor ratio of 1. It offers a minimum DC current gain (hFE) of 70 at -10 mA and -5 V, with a maximum operating frequency of 200 MHz and a power dissipation of 100 mW.

Feature Summary

• Automotive-grade reliability certified to AEC-Q200 standards
• Integrated bias resistors simplify circuit design and reduce component count
• Compact SSM-3 package suitable for space-constrained PCB layouts

Applications

• Automotive interface circuits
• Driver circuits for automotive loads
• Switching applications in vehicle electronics

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix LXHF(CT) against the official Toshiba datasheet to confirm packaging details such as reel size or tape width. Ensure the AEC-Q200 qualification status matches the project's automotive grade requirements. Cross-reference the SSM-3 package dimensions with the target PCB footprint to prevent assembly errors during procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a PNP digital transistor with a 22 kOhm base resistor is required for automotive environments. The -50 V rating and -100 mA current capacity define its load handling limits. Consider the 200 MHz switching speed for high-frequency applications. Compare thermal performance if multiple units are placed closely on the board due to the 100 mW power dissipation limit.

Part Context

This part belongs to Toshiba's RN series of pre-biased transistors, which combine bipolar junction transistors with internal biasing networks. The RN2103 variant specifically provides a single PNP configuration. The LXHF(CT) suffix indicates the specific taping and packaging format used for automated surface-mount assembly processes.
