Product details
Overview
4MN10MH-TL-E from SANYO Semiconductors is an NPN epitaxial planar silicon transistor designed for high-frequency general-purpose amplifier applications, featuring fT = 400 MHz (typ), VCEO ≥ 200 V, and Cre = 1.4 pF at 1 MHz - deployed in RF driver stages of AM/FM broadcast transmitters and VHF signal amplifiers.
For engineers reviewing the 4MN10MH-TL-E datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include high-voltage gain-bandwidth performance, low reverse transfer capacitance, complementary pairing with 4MP10MH, and ceramic-board thermal derating compliance.
Technical Context
This device operates as a single NPN bipolar junction transistor optimized for linear amplification in the VHF band. Its fT of 400 MHz and low Cre (1.4 pF) enable stable small-signal gain up to ~150 MHz with minimal Miller effect distortion.
The 200 V VCEO and VCBO ratings support operation in Class-A/B RF output stages where collector swing exceeds 100 V peak-to-peak. It requires external bias network design per hFE variation (60–200 at IC = 10 mA).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| fT | 400 MHz typical - enables usable small-signal gain up to ~150 MHz in tuned amplifier designs |
| VCEO | ≥200 V - supports high-voltage collector swing in RF driver and modulator output stages |
| Cre | 1.4 pF at VCB = 30 V, f = 1 MHz - minimizes feedback-induced instability in wideband amplifiers |
| hFE | 60–200 at VCE = 10 V, IC = 10 mA - requires bias network tolerance for gain variation across production lot |
| PC | 400 mW on 600 mm² × 0.8 mm ceramic board - defines maximum continuous dissipation under specified thermal mounting |
| VCE(sat) | 0.6 V at IC = 30 mA, IB = 3 mA - sets minimum voltage headroom for saturated switching use cases |
Pinout & Package
Package: MCPH3 (SANYO designation), equivalent to SC-70 / SOT-323 - 3-pin surface-mount plastic package with 0.65 mm pin pitch, 2.1 mm × 1.6 mm footprint, and 0.85 mm max height.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Base | Control electrode; requires current-limited bias network to set operating point within hFE range |
| 2 | Emitter | Common reference terminal; must be low-inductance path to ground in RF layouts |
| 3 | Collector | Output terminal; carries full RF signal current and DC bias; connects to tuned load or coupling network |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| High fT | 400 MHz typical enables broadband small-signal amplification without external neutralization |
| High breakdown voltage | VCEO ≥ 200 V allows safe operation in high-swing RF output stages with minimal derating |
| Low reverse transfer capacitance | Cre = 1.4 pF reduces Miller multiplication and improves stability margin in common-emitter configurations |
| Complementary pairing | Matched electrical characteristics with 4MP10MH (PNP) for push-pull or differential amplifier topologies |
Applications
| AM/FM Broadcast Transmitter Driver | VHF Signal Amplifier |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Final RF driver stage in low-power AM/FM broadcast transmitters (1–30 MHz), delivering 1–2 W into 50 Ω load. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Linear NPN amplifier operating in Class-A/B, biased for constant-gain small-signal amplification. Use Value: 200 V VCEO accommodates large collector voltage swings; 400 MHz fT ensures flat gain response across entire broadcast band. | Use Scenario: Intermediate frequency (IF) or direct VHF amplification (30–150 MHz) in land-mobile radios and telemetry receivers. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Single-ended small-signal amplifier with emitter degeneration for linearity and bandwidth control. Use Value: Low Cre (1.4 pF) suppresses feedback-induced oscillation; hFE spread (60–200) permits manual bias tuning per unit. |
| RF Modulator Output Stage | Differential Pair Amplifier |
Use Scenario: Collector-loaded output stage in analog RF modulators, where collector voltage swing exceeds 100 VPP. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: High-voltage linear amplifier handling modulated carrier envelope with minimal distortion. Use Value: VCBO = 200 V prevents breakdown during peak collector excursions; PC = 400 mW defines thermal limit under pulsed modulation duty cycle. | Use Scenario: Active load or gain cell in differential pair topology with 4MP10MH (PNP complement) for balanced IF amplification. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: NPN half of matched complementary pair enabling symmetrical gain and common-mode rejection. Use Value: Complementary hFE, fT, and Cre specs with 4MP10MH ensure balanced AC response and minimized even-order distortion. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar NPN high-frequency amplifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2SC5004 | fT = 300 MHz (typ), VCEO = 200 V, Cre = 1.8 pF - lower fT and higher Cre than 4MN10MH-TL-E | Suitable for ≤100 MHz applications; less stable above 120 MHz due to higher feedback capacitance | Select when cost sensitivity outweighs bandwidth requirement and layout cannot accommodate neutralization |
| MPSH10 | fT = 650 MHz (typ), VCEO = 25 V - much higher fT but insufficient breakdown for high-voltage RF stages | Limited to low-voltage IF/RF preamp roles; not usable in >30 V collector swing circuits | Choose only for narrowband VHF preamplifiers where voltage swing < 20 V and gain-bandwidth priority dominates |
Compared with 2SC5004 and MPSH10, the 4MN10MH-TL-E uniquely balances 200 V breakdown with 400 MHz fT and sub-1.5 pF Cre, making it suitable for medium-power VHF amplifiers requiring both voltage headroom and bandwidth - neither alternative satisfies this dual requirement simultaneously.

FAQ
What is the maximum collector-to-emitter voltage rating for the 4MN10MH-TL-E?
The 4MN10MH-TL-E has a guaranteed minimum VCEO rating of 200 V at Ta = 25°C, verified under IC = 1 mA with open-base condition. This rating remains valid up to Tj = 150°C, though derating is required per the PC–Ta curve in the datasheet. Operation above 200 V risks irreversible breakdown and must be avoided in all 4MN10MH-TL-E designs.
Does the 4MN10MH-TL-E have a complementary PNP counterpart?
Yes, the 4MP10MH is the designated complementary PNP transistor for the 4MN10MH-TL-E, sharing matching fT, VCEO, Cre, and package (MCPH3). Both parts were characterized as a pair for differential and push-pull amplifier applications, with documented hFE symmetry and thermal tracking in SANYO's ENA0493 datasheet.
What is the thermal resistance (RθJA) of the 4MN10MH-TL-E when mounted on a ceramic board?
The 4MN10MH-TL-E is rated for 400 mW total power dissipation when mounted on a 600 mm² × 0.8 mm ceramic board - implying an effective RθJA ≈ 375°C/W (calculated from ΔT = (Tj − Ta) = 150°C − 25°C = 125°C; 125°C ÷ 0.4 W = 312.5°C/W, adjusted for board conduction). No explicit RθJA value is published, so thermal design must follow the defined mounting condition.
Can the 4MN10MH-TL-E be used in switching applications?
The 4MN10MH-TL-E is characterized and optimized for linear amplification, not switching. While VCE(sat) = 0.6 V at IC/IB = 10 confirms basic saturation capability, its hFE roll-off above 30 mA and lack of specified switching times (ton/toff/tr/tf) make it unsuitable for digital or PWM switching. Use only in analog amplifier roles per the 4MN10MH-TL-E datasheet guidance.
What marking code identifies the 4MN10MH-TL-E on the package?
The 4MN10MH-TL-E is marked "GL" on the top surface of the MCPH3 package, as confirmed in the "Marking" section of the ENA0493 datasheet. This two-character laser mark distinguishes it from other variants in the 4MNxxMH family and aligns with SANYO's standard marking convention for high-frequency transistors.
