Product details
Overview
2PA1774QM,315 from Nexperia is a PNP general purpose transistor in a leadless ultra small plastic SOT883 package (1.0 × 0.6 × 0.5 mm), rated for −40 V VCEO, −100 mA IC (DC), and 120–270 hFE at −1 mA IC. It delivers low VCEsat (−200 mV @ −50 mA/−5 mA) and fT = 100 MHz, enabling use in compact mobile camera modules and PCMCIA card power switching.
For engineers reviewing the 2PA1774QM,315 datasheet, 2PA1774QM,315 pinout, 2PA1774QM,315 application, or 2PA1774QM,315 equivalent, key selection criteria include its SOT883 footprint constraints, PNP polarity with verified −40 V breakdown, DC current gain spread, thermal resistance (290 K/W on FR4), and compatibility with low-voltage bias networks in space-constrained portable electronics.
Technical Context
This device operates as a discrete PNP bipolar junction transistor optimized for general-purpose amplification and switching in low-to-medium frequency analog and digital signal paths. Its design centers on high current gain consistency across temperature (−55 °C to +150 °C), tight VCEsat control under defined IC/IB ratios, and minimal collector capacitance (2.2 pF).
The SOT883 package enables board-level integration where area is constrained to ≤1.3 mm × 0.9 mm, while thermal performance relies on standardized FR4 mounting with 1 cm² collector pad per JEDEC guidelines. The NPN complement is confirmed as 2PC4617M series.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCEO | −40 V - maximum safe collector-emitter voltage with base open; defines upper rail limit in PNP switch designs |
| IC (DC) | −100 mA - continuous collector current rating; sets steady-state load drive capability |
| hFE | 120–270 - DC current gain at VCE = −6 V, IC = −1 mA; determines required base drive for target collector current |
| VCEsat | −200 mV - saturation voltage at IC = −50 mA, IB = −5 mA; directly impacts conduction loss in switching applications |
| fT | 100 MHz - transition frequency at VCE = −12 V, IC = −2 mA; indicates usable bandwidth for small-signal amplification |
| Cc | 2.2 pF - collector capacitance at VCB = −12 V, f = 1 MHz; affects high-frequency response and noise coupling |
| Rth(j-a) | 290 K/W - thermal resistance junction-to-ambient on FR4 with 1 cm² collector pad; governs max power dissipation at given ambient |
Pinout & Package
SOT883 is a leadless ultra small plastic package measuring 1.0 mm × 0.6 mm × 0.5 mm with three solder lands. Board space requirement is 1.3 mm × 0.9 mm. Thermal performance assumes standard FR4 mounting with 60 μm copper trace and dedicated 1 cm² collector pad.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Base | Control terminal for forward-biased PNP operation; requires negative bias relative to emitter to turn on |
| 2 | Emiter | Current source terminal in PNP configuration; connected to higher potential rail in typical switch layouts |
| 3 | Collector | Current sink terminal; electrically tied to PCB ground or low-side load return path in common-emitter setups |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultra-compact footprint | 1.3 mm × 0.9 mm board area - enables integration into sub-10 mm² camera module PCBs and thin client peripherals |
| Low saturation voltage | VCEsat = −200 mV @ −50 mA/−5 mA - reduces conduction loss and self-heating in battery-powered load switches |
| High fT | 100 MHz - supports stable amplification up to mid-VHF band in RF front-end bias networks |
| Wide operating temperature | −65 °C to +150 °C - validated for automotive cabin and industrial edge sensor environments |
| Controlled hFE range | 120–270 at −1 mA - allows predictable base resistor selection without trimming in production assemblies |
Applications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar PNP general purpose transistor applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2PA1774RM,315 | Higher hFE range (180–390) at same test conditions; otherwise identical ratings and package | Better suited for low-base-drive applications like high-impedance sensor biasing | Select when base current budget is constrained and gain stability at low IC is critical |
| BC807-40,215 | SOT23 package (larger footprint); VCEO = −45 V; hFE = 250–630; Rth(j-a) = 300 K/W | Preferred where manual rework or thermal margin >290 K/W is required | Choose for prototyping or lower-volume industrial designs needing easier handling and higher voltage margin |
Compared with 2PA1774RM,315, the 2PA1774QM,315 offers tighter gain control at modest drive levels; versus BC807-40,215, it trades thermal margin and ease-of-handling for 60% smaller board area-critical in ultra-thin consumer devices.

FAQ
Is the 2PA1774QM,315 RoHS compliant and halogen-free?
Yes. As a Nexperia product manufactured post-2017, 2PA1774QM,315 meets RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU and is certified halogen-free per IEC 61249-2-21. Full compliance documentation is available through Nexperia's product change notifications and material declarations portal.
What is the recommended solder profile for SOT883 packaging?
The SOT883 package requires a lead-free reflow profile with peak temperature ≤260 °C, ramp-up rate ≤3 °C/s, and time above 217 °C of 60–150 seconds. Preheat must not exceed 150 °C for more than 90 seconds to avoid die attach degradation, per Nexperia SOT883 assembly guidelines.
Can the 2PA1774QM,315 replace an SOT23 PNP transistor in existing designs?
Only with PCB layout revision. SOT883 has different pad geometry (0.55 mm pitch, 0.20 mm land width) versus SOT23 (0.95 mm pitch). Direct substitution is mechanically impossible; redesign must accommodate 1.0 × 0.6 mm body size and 1.3 × 0.9 mm board area.
Does the 2PA1774QM,315 support pulsed operation beyond its DC ratings?
Yes. Per limiting values, peak collector current is rated at −200 mA for short pulses (tp ≤ 300 μs, duty cycle ≤ 2%). This enables brief surge handling in flash LED drivers or ESD clamp assist circuits, provided average power remains within 250 mW (free air) or 430 mW (with 1 cm² pad).
