Product details

Overview

2SD1802S-E from onsemi is a PNP bipolar junction transistor rated for −50 V VCEO, −3 A IC, and 1 W at TC = 25 °C, featuring low VCE(sat) of −0.35 V at IC = −2 A / IB = −100 mA, fast switching (ton = 70 ns, tf = 35 ns), and housed in the TP (IPAK) package. It serves as a high-current switch in relay drivers and voltage regulators.

For engineers reviewing the 2SD1802S-E datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include verified PNP polarity, confirmed −50 V/−3 A ratings, TP package thermal performance, low saturation voltage under high current, and documented switching timing at defined test conditions.

Technical Context

This device is a discrete PNP BJT fabricated using onsemi's FBET and MBIT processes, delivering wide Active Safe Operating Area (ASO) and stable hFE across current range - 100–560 at IC = −100 mA and ≥35 at IC = −3 A. Its low VCE(sat) and fast turn-on/fall times support efficient high-speed switching in power control circuits.

The 2SD1802S-E operates with fixed polarity: emitter is most positive terminal, collector most negative in active mode. It requires external base drive for saturation control and exhibits Cob = 25 pF at VCB = −10 V, f = 1 MHz - critical for high-frequency switching stability.

Key Specifications

Parameter Value and Actual Design Meaning
VCEO −50 V - maximum allowable collector-to-emitter voltage before breakdown; defines safe operating voltage headroom in PNP switch applications.
IC −3 A - continuous DC collector current rating; supports high-current loads such as solenoids and lamp drivers without derating at TC = 25 °C.
VCE(sat) −0.35 V (typ) at IC = −2 A / IB = −100 mA - low saturation voltage minimizes conduction loss and heat generation in switching mode.
hFE 100–560 (ranked R–U) at VCE = −2 V, IC = −100 mA - wide gain distribution enables flexible base drive design across production lots.
fT 150 MHz - gain-bandwidth product confirms suitability for medium-frequency switching up to several MHz with adequate gain margin.
ton/tf 70 ns / 35 ns - fast switching transitions reduce switching losses and enable higher PWM frequencies in power control stages.

Pinout & Package

2SD1802S-E is packaged in TP (IPAK), Case 369AJ - a surface-mount, single-ended lead frame package with exposed drain pad for thermal dissipation. The package measures 6.7 mm × 6.2 mm × 2.4 mm and supports 15 W power dissipation at TC = 25 °C.

Pin/Terminal Circuit Role Design Meaning
1 (Collector) Main current sink terminal Connected to load return path; must be routed with low-inductance trace for fast switching integrity.
2 (Base) Control input for minority carrier injection Requires −100 mA drive for full saturation; base resistor selection must ensure IB ≥ IC/20 under worst-case hFE.
3 (Emitter) Current source reference terminal Highest potential node in PNP operation; tied to system VCC or regulated rail; electrically and thermally connected to exposed pad.

Key Features

Feature Design Value
Low VCE(sat) −0.35 V typ at −2 A ensures <1.4 W conduction loss per device, reducing heatsink requirements in compact designs.
Wide ASO Validated safe operating area up to IC = −3 A and VCE = −50 V enables robustness against transient overloads in relay and motor drive circuits.
Fast switching 70 ns turn-on + 35 ns fall time allows >5 MHz PWM operation with minimal dead-time penalty and reduced EMI generation.
Pb-Free & RoHS compliant Meets EU RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU and JEDEC J-STD-020 reflow profile - suitable for lead-free SMT assembly without reliability compromise.

Equivalent & Alternatives

The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar PNP high-current switching applications.

Alternative Part Technical Difference Application Difference Selection Advice
2SB1202S-E Same TP package, identical pinout, but rated for −60 V VCBO and −50 V VCEO; hFE min 100 at −100 mA, same −3 A IC. Higher VCBO provides greater margin in high-voltage transient environments; otherwise functionally interchangeable in 2SD1802S-E layouts. Select 2SB1202S-E when enhanced collector-base breakdown immunity is required without changing board layout or drive network.
MJD2955G DPAK (TO-252) package, −60 V VCEO, −10 A IC, VCE(sat) = −1.3 V @ −5 A - significantly higher saturation voltage and larger footprint. Designed for higher current and higher voltage applications; not drop-in due to different pinout (E-B-C vs C-B-E) and thermal pad orientation. Choose MJD2955G only when absolute maximum ratings exceed 2SD1802S-E limits and board redesign is acceptable.

Compared with 2SD1802S-E, 2SB1202S-E offers identical form-factor and electrical compatibility with improved VCBO margin, while MJD2955G trades lower VCE(sat) and smaller footprint for higher current capability and non-interchangeable packaging - making 2SB1202S-E the preferred direct alternative.

FAQ

What is the package type and mounting style of the 2SD1802S-E?

The 2SD1802S-E uses the TP (IPAK) package, Case 369AJ - a surface-mount, single-ended lead frame with an exposed emitter pad for thermal conduction. It is designed for reflow soldering onto PCBs with thermal vias under the pad to dissipate up to 15 W at TC = 25 °C. The 2SD1802S-E pinout is Collector–Base–Emitter (1–2–3) with no internal isolation.

Does the 2SD1802S-E have Pb-Free and RoHS compliance documentation?

Yes, the 2SD1802S-E is explicitly marked Pb-Free and RoHS compliant per the onsemi datasheet (Rev. 1, April 2026). It meets JEDEC J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity level (MSL) 1 and passes all required lead-free reflow profiles. The 2SD1802S-E shipping format is 500 pcs./bag, and compliance certificates are available upon request from Aetrix Electronics.

What is the guaranteed minimum hFE for the 2SD1802S-E at high current?

The 2SD1802S-E guarantees hFE ≥ 35 at VCE = −2 V and IC = −3 A, as specified in the Electrical Characteristics table. This minimum ensures reliable saturation with IB ≥ −150 mA, enabling predictable base drive design for high-current switching. The 2SD1802S-E hFE at low current (−100 mA) ranges from 100 to 560 depending on rank.

Can the 2SD1802S-E replace the 2SD1802T-E in existing designs?

Yes - the 2SD1802S-E and 2SD1802T-E share identical electrical specifications, TP package, and pinout; the only difference is hFE ranking (S-rank: 140–280, T-rank: 200–400). Both meet the same VCE(sat), switching time, and ASO requirements. The 2SD1802S-E can be used interchangeably where S-rank gain distribution is acceptable or preferred.

Is the 2SD1802S-E still in active production or discontinued?

The 2SD1802S-E remains active and available per onsemi's official ordering information (page 6, Rev. 1 datasheet). While several variants including 2SD1802T-TL-E are marked "DISCONTINUED", the 2SD1802S-E is listed with standard TP packaging and 500 pcs./bag shipping - confirming ongoing manufacture and supply.
