Product details
Overview
BSR33,135 from Nexperia is a PNP medium-power bipolar junction transistor in SOT89 package, rated for −80 V VCEO, −1 A continuous collector current, and 1.35 W power dissipation at Tamb ≤ 25 °C; designed for high-side switching and linear regulation in automotive-qualified battery-powered systems.
For engineers reviewing the BSR33,135 datasheet, BSR33,135 pinout, BSR33,135 application, or BSR33,135 equivalent, key selection criteria include its AEC-Q101 qualification, exposed heatsink thermal performance (Rth(j-sp) = 13 K/W), −0.25 V VCEsat at −150 mA/−15 mA drive, and complementary pairing with NPN BSR43.
Technical Context
This PNP transistor operates in linear and saturated switching modes, with DC current gain (hFE) ranging from 50 to 300 depending on bias conditions-100–300 at −100 mA, 50 minimum at −500 mA. Its −90 V VCBO and −5 V VEBO support robust blocking in high-side configurations where emitter sits at rail potential.
Thermally optimized via an exposed collector pad soldered directly to PCB copper, it achieves Rth(j-a) = 93 K/W in free air and Rth(j-sp) = 13 K/W to solder point-enabling reliable operation up to 150 °C junction temperature under pulsed or continuous loads.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCEO | −80 V: Maximum safe collector-emitter voltage with base open; enables use in 48 V and 60 V automotive subsystems. |
| IC | −1 A continuous: Sustained load current capability without derating below 25 °C ambient; supports medium-power switching. |
| Ptot | 1.35 W at Tamb ≤ 25 °C: Total power dissipation limit on FR4 PCB with 6 cm² collector pad; defines thermal design boundary. |
| hFE | 100–300 at −100 mA: DC current gain range enabling predictable base drive sizing for linear regulators and amplifiers. |
| VCEsat | −0.25 V at −150 mA/−15 mA: Low saturation voltage reduces conduction loss in high-side switch applications. |
| fT | 100 MHz at −10 V/−50 mA: Transition frequency supporting moderate-speed switching and RF amplifier use up to ~10 MHz. |
Pinout & Package
SOT89 plastic surface-mount package with 3 leads, 1.5 mm pitch, 4.5 mm × 2.5 mm × 1.5 mm body, featuring an exposed collector pad for thermal and electrical connection to PCB copper.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Emitter | Current exit terminal; connected to higher potential rail in high-side switch configuration. |
| 2 | Collector | Main current sink terminal; electrically and thermally tied to PCB copper via exposed pad. |
| 3 | Base | Control input; requires negative bias relative to emitter to turn on PNP device. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| AEC-Q101 qualified | Validated for automotive-grade reliability including temperature cycling, HTRB, and ESD per JESD22 standards. |
| Exposed collector pad | Enables direct thermal coupling to PCB copper, reducing Rth(j-sp) to 13 K/W for stable high-current operation. |
| High VCEO / VCBO | −80 V / −90 V ratings allow safe operation in 48 V battery systems with transient margin. |
| Low VCEsat | −0.25 V at −150 mA ensures <150 mW conduction loss in high-side switch mode, minimizing self-heating. |
Applications
| Linear Voltage Regulators | High-Side Switches |
|---|---|

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar PNP medium-power transistor applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BSR32,135 | Lower VCEO (−60 V) and lower IC (−0.5 A); same SOT89 package and AEC-Q101 qualification. | Suitable only for ≤24 V systems; insufficient for 48 V automotive transients. | Select when cost sensitivity outweighs voltage headroom needs in non-automotive 12–24 V designs. |
| MMBT3906LT1G | Smaller SOT-23 package; −40 V VCEO, −200 mA IC; no AEC-Q101 qualification. | Limited to low-power signal switching; not rated for automotive or high-current loads. | Choose only for space-constrained consumer electronics where automotive reliability is not required. |
Compared with BSR33,135, BSR32,135 trades voltage/current headroom for cost in lower-voltage systems, while MMBT3906LT1G sacrifices ruggedness and power handling for footprint reduction-neither matches the BSR33,135's combination of 48 V compatibility, 1 A capacity, and automotive qualification.

FAQ
Is BSR33,135 pin-compatible with BSR43?
No-BSR33,135 is a PNP transistor with emitter (pin 1), collector (pin 2), base (pin 3); BSR43 is its NPN complement with reversed polarity and identical SOT89 pinout but opposite terminal functions. They share mechanical compatibility but require circuit-level polarity reversal for substitution.
What is the maximum allowable PCB copper area for optimal thermal performance?
Per datasheet footnote [1], optimal thermal performance requires a single-sided FR4 PCB with tin-plated copper and a 6 cm² mounting pad for the collector. Reducing pad area increases Rth(j-a) nonlinearly; halving pad size may raise junction temperature by >20 °C at full load.
Does BSR33,135 support pulse operation beyond its DC ratings?
Yes-peak collector current ICM is rated at −2 A for single pulses ≤1 ms, and peak base current IBM is −200 mA under same conditions. These values enable short-duration surge handling in motor start-up or fault-clearing circuits without thermal runaway.
Can BSR33,135 be used in Class AB audio amplifier output stages?
Yes-its hFE stability across −100 µA to −500 mA, low VCEsat, and 100 MHz fT support mid-power audio output buffering. However, thermal design must account for dissipation in linear mode; recommended only for ≤500 mW RMS output into 8 Ω with adequate heatsinking.
