Product details
Overview
2PC4617R,135 from Nexperia is an NPN general-purpose bipolar junction transistor in SOT416 (SC-75) package, rated for 50 V VCEO, 150 mA IC, and 150 mW Ptot, with DC current gain (hFE) of 180–390 at IC = 1 mA. It serves as a low-voltage, low-current switch or amplifier in compact consumer and EDP signal paths.
For engineers reviewing the 2PC4617R,135 datasheet, 2PC4617R,135 pinout, 2PC4617R,135 application, or 2PC4617R,135 equivalent, key selection criteria include its SC-75 footprint compatibility, guaranteed hFE range, VCEO/IC derating behavior, and thermal resistance (Rth(j-a) = 833 K/W) on FR4 PCBs.
Technical Context
This discrete NPN transistor operates in linear or saturation mode with verified cutoff leakage (ICBO ≤ 100 nA at 30 V, 25 °C) and low VCE(sat) (≤ 200 mV at IC = 50 mA, IB = 5 mA). Its fT ≥ 100 MHz supports audio and low-speed digital switching up to ~10 MHz.
Thermal performance is defined for standard FR4 board mounting (single-sided copper, tin-plated), with maximum junction temperature of 150 °C and storage range from −65 °C to +150 °C. The device lacks integrated protection features and requires external base current limiting.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCEO | 50 V - Maximum collector-emitter voltage before breakdown under open-base condition; sets upper rail limit for switching applications. |
| IC (DC) | 150 mA - Continuous collector current rating; defines max steady-state load drive capability at Tamb ≤ 25 °C. |
| hFE | 180–390 - DC current gain at IC = 1 mA, VCE = 6 V; determines required base drive for reliable saturation. |
| VCE(sat) | ≤ 200 mV - Collector-emitter saturation voltage at IC = 50 mA, IB = 5 mA; directly impacts power loss and logic-level compatibility. |
| Rth(j-a) | 833 K/W - Junction-to-ambient thermal resistance on standard FR4; used to calculate ΔTj rise under given Ptot. |
| fT | ≥ 100 MHz - Transition frequency at IC = 2 mA, VCE = 12 V; indicates usable bandwidth for small-signal amplification. |
Pinout & Package
SOT416 (SC-75) plastic surface-mounted package: ultra-small outline, 3-pin, single-ended lead frame, 1.75 mm × 0.95 mm body size, 0.45 mm pitch, 0.7 mm height.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Base | Control terminal; requires current-limited drive to bias transistor into active or saturated region. |
| 2 | Emitter | Current return path; typically tied to ground or low-side reference in common-emitter configurations. |
| 3 | Collector | Output terminal; connects to load and supply rail; carries full switched current in saturation mode. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Guaranteed hFE range | 180–390 at IC = 1 mA ensures predictable base drive sizing across production lots. |
| Low VCE(sat) | ≤ 200 mV enables efficient switching in battery-powered or low-voltage logic interfaces. |
| Small-footprint SOT416 | 0.95 mm × 1.75 mm body allows high-density placement in space-constrained consumer PCBs. |
| High fT | ≥ 100 MHz supports stable operation in audio preamps and clock buffer stages up to 10 MHz. |
Applications
| Audio Signal Switching | EDP Peripheral Control |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Selecting between two analog audio sources in portable media players using low-voltage logic control. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: NPN switch enabling/disabling signal path via base-driven saturation. Use Value: Low VCE(sat) minimizes insertion loss (<200 mV drop), preserving SNR in line-level audio routing. |
Use Scenario: Enabling/disabling USB interface LEDs or status indicators on notebook motherboard daughterboards. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: General-purpose low-current switch controlled by 3.3 V GPIO. Use Value: Guaranteed hFE ≥ 180 ensures full LED current drive with minimal base resistor tolerance sensitivity. |
| Consumer Remote IR Driver | Low-Power Sensor Interface |
Use Scenario: Driving infrared LED pulses in TV remote controls powered by coin-cell batteries. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Fast-switching NPN transistor modulating IR carrier at 38 kHz. Use Value: fT ≥ 100 MHz supports clean square-wave edge integrity without slew-induced distortion. |
Use Scenario: Level-shifting and buffering analog output from MEMS accelerometers to ADC input rails. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Emitter-follower configured for impedance matching and DC-coupled gain stability. Use Value: Low ICBO (≤100 nA) prevents offset drift in high-impedance sensor bias networks. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar NPN general-purpose transistor applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BC846B,215 | Same SOT23 package (not SC-75); hFE = 200–450; VCEO = 65 V; Ptot = 250 mW. | Higher voltage/power rating; larger footprint; not drop-in for SC-75 layout. | Select when board space permits SOT23 and higher VCEO margin is needed. |
| 2SC4617R,135 | Identical marking code and electrical specs; same Nexperia product family; identical SC-75 package. | No functional difference; alternate part number reflecting legacy naming convention. | Direct form-fit-function replacement; verify sourcing channel availability. |
Compared with BC846B,215, the 2PC4617R,135 offers smaller footprint and lower thermal resistance per unit area but reduced voltage headroom; versus 2SC4617R,135, it is functionally identical with no design impact.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating temperature for the 2PC4617R,135?
The 2PC4617R,135 has a maximum junction temperature (Tj) of 150 °C and a storage temperature range of −65 °C to +150 °C. Operation above 150 °C risks permanent degradation. Derating is required above 25 °C ambient due to Rth(j-a) = 833 K/W; for example, at 70 °C ambient, max allowable Ptot drops to ~90 mW.
Does the 2PC4617R,135 have built-in ESD protection?
No, the 2PC4617R,135 does not integrate ESD protection diodes. It complies with standard JEDEC JESD22-A114 (HBM) only up to ±2 kV, typical for bare bipolar transistors. System-level ESD protection must be implemented externally if used in handheld or exposed I/O applications.
What is the marking code for the 2PC4617R,135 on the package?
The 2PC4617R,135 is marked with "ZR" on the top surface of its SOT416 (SC-75) package. This 2-character laser marking distinguishes it from the Q (ZQ) and S (ZS) variants within the same 2PC4617 family, corresponding to different hFE bins.
Can the 2PC4617R,135 replace the 2PA1774 in a circuit?
No - the 2PA1774 is the PNP complement to the 2PC4617 series and is not interchangeable. Swapping 2PC4617R,135 (NPN) for 2PA1774 (PNP) would reverse current flow direction and polarity requirements, causing circuit failure unless topology is redesigned.
Is the 2PC4617R,135 suitable for linear amplification applications?
Yes, the 2PC4617R,135 supports linear operation with verified fT ≥ 100 MHz and low noise characteristics. However, its hFE variation (180–390) and lack of specified noise figure require emitter degeneration and DC feedback for stable gain; best suited for non-critical audio preamp or signal routing stages.
