RN2416,LXHF

Overview

The RN2416,LXHF is a PNP digital transistor manufactured by Toshiba Semiconductor and Storage, designed for switching and driver applications. It integrates a single PNP epitaxial planar silicon transistor with built-in bias resistors in an S-Mini-3 (SOT-346) surface-mount package. Key electrical specifications include a collector-emitter voltage (VCEO) of -50 V, a continuous collector current (IC) of -0.1 A, and a typical input resistance of 4.7 kΩ. The device features a DC current gain (hFE) of at least 120 at -1 mA and -5 V, with a maximum operating frequency of 200 MHz and power dissipation of 200 mW. It is qualified under the AEC-Q200 automotive standard.

Feature Summary

• Integrated bias resistor network eliminates external components, simplifying circuit design and reducing board space.
• Automotive-grade reliability ensured through AEC-Q200 qualification for harsh environment operation.
• High-speed switching capability supported by a maximum operating frequency of 200 MHz.

Applications

• Automotive electronic control units requiring robust PNP switching elements.
• General-purpose interface circuits for logic level translation.
• Driver circuits for low-power loads in consumer electronics.

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix LXHF against the official Toshiba datasheet to confirm pinout and internal resistor configuration. Ensure the procurement source provides valid traceability documentation for AEC-Q200 compliance. Confirm that the delivered reels or cut tapes match the specified S-Mini-3 packaging format to prevent assembly errors during surface mount placement.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a compact PNP digital transistor with integrated biasing is required for automotive or high-reliability applications. Compare the 4.7 kΩ input resistance against system drive requirements to ensure adequate base current. Verify that the -50 V VCEO rating exceeds the maximum circuit voltage spikes to prevent breakdown during normal operation.

Part Context

This part belongs to Toshiba's RN series of pre-biased transistors, which combine bipolar junction transistors with internal resistor networks. The LXHF suffix denotes the specific tape-and-reel packaging variant within the S-Mini-3 form factor. This series is engineered to replace discrete resistor-transistor combinations, offering improved consistency and reduced footprint in modern PCB designs.

Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with other PNP digital transistors in the SOT-346 package having similar VCEO and IC ratings. Verify that substitute parts meet the same AEC-Q200 automotive qualification standards if used in vehicle systems. Check for identical pin configurations to ensure direct compatibility without schematic modifications.
