UP0440100L

Overview

The UP0440100L is a dual pre-biased transistor array manufactured by Panasonic Industrial Devices, housed in an SSmini6 surface-mount package. It integrates one NPN and one PNP bipolar junction transistor (BJT) within a single compact component. The device features a maximum collector-emitter voltage of 50V and a continuous collector current rating of 100mA. Electrical characteristics include a DC current gain (hFE) minimum of 35 at 5mA and 10V, with a maximum saturation voltage of 250mV at 300µA base current and 10mA collector current. Transition frequencies are specified at 150MHz for the NPN element and 80MHz for the PNP element, supporting high-speed switching applications.

Feature Summary

Procurement Notes

Verify the current production status before procurement planning, as this specific part number may be discontinued or subject to lifecycle changes. Confirm that the SSmini6 package dimensions align with the target footprint. Request the latest datasheet to validate electrical parameters against current manufacturing batches. Ensure compatibility with automated pick-and-place equipment regarding the small outline package profile.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a matched NPN/PNP pair is required for complementary switching or logic inversion tasks. The pre-biased architecture reduces external resistor count compared to discrete solutions. Evaluate the 100mA current limit and 50V voltage rating against peak load requirements. Consider the 150MHz/80MHz transition frequencies for signal integrity in high-speed digital environments.

Part Context

This component belongs to Panasonic's lineup of pre-biased transistor arrays designed for digital logic applications. These devices consolidate multiple discrete components into a single surface-mount unit to improve assembly efficiency and reduce board space. The UP0440100L specifically addresses needs for compact, high-density electronic designs requiring reliable NPN and PNP switching capabilities.
