Product details
Overview
CPH6153-TL-E from onsemi is a PNP bipolar junction transistor (BJT) rated for −20 V VCEO, −3 A IC, and −195 mV VCE(sat) at −1.5 A/−75 mA, fabricated using MBIT process in ultrasmall CPH6 (SC-74/SOT-26) package. It serves as a high-current, low-saturation load switch in DC-DC converters and motor drivers.
For engineers reviewing the CPH6153-TL-E datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include guaranteed IECO reverse-flow prevention, 400 MHz fT, 1.3 W power dissipation on ceramic substrate, and high-speed switching with 35 ns ton/12 ns tf.
Technical Context
This PNP BJT employs onsemi's MBIT process to achieve low VCE(sat) (−130 to −195 mV) and high current gain (hFE = 200–560 at −100 mA), enabling efficient switching in high-duty-cycle load applications. Its 400 MHz fT and 22 pF Cob support fast transitions while maintaining stability under capacitive loads.
The device integrates IECO protection-guaranteed emitter-to-collector reverse leakage ≤ −1 μA at VEC = −4.5 V-to prevent unintended conduction in bidirectional or back-powering configurations. Thermal performance is optimized for mounting on 600 mm² × 0.8 mm ceramic substrates, delivering 1.3 W PC at Ta = 25°C.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar PNP BJT switching applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MMBT6520LT1G | Lower IC (−2 A), higher VCE(sat) (−300 mV typ), same SOT-23 package | Not suitable for −3 A continuous loads; limited to ≤1.5 A applications | Select when footprint compatibility with SOT-23 is required and current demand is ≤1.5 A |
| DXT6153-13 | Same die, but in SOT-563 (6-pin) package with different pinout (collector/base/emitter shared across multiple pins) | Requires PCB layout change; offers identical electrical specs and IECO guarantee | Select when higher thermal mass or alternate assembly process favors SOT-563 over CPH6 |
Compared with MMBT6520LT1G and DXT6153-13, CPH6153-TL-E uniquely delivers −3 A current capability with −195 mV VCE(sat) in the lowest-profile 6-pin package (0.9 mm height), making it optimal for ultra-slim load-switch designs requiring guaranteed reverse-blocking.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous collector current rating for CPH6153-TL-E?
The CPH6153-TL-E is rated for −3 A continuous collector current (IC) at Ta = 25°C when mounted on a specified ceramic substrate (600 mm² × 0.8 mm). This rating assumes proper thermal management; derating applies above 25°C ambient per the PC vs. Ta curve in the datasheet. The device also supports −5 A pulsed current (ICP) for durations <10 μs.
Does CPH6153-TL-E support reverse current blocking between emitter and collector?
Yes, CPH6153-TL-E guarantees IECO (emitter-to-collector output leakage) ≤ −1 μA at VEC = −4.5 V and IB = 0 A. This specification ensures robust reverse-current blocking, making CPH6153-TL-E suitable for applications like USB port power switching where backflow from peripherals must be prevented.
What package type and dimensions does CPH6153-TL-E use?
CPH6153-TL-E uses the CPH6 package, which is JEITA/JEDEC-registered as SC-74, SOT-26, and SOT-457. Its dimensions are 2.9 mm × 1.6 mm × 0.9 mm (L × W × H), with a 0.6 mm lead pitch and 0.015 g mass. The package features four collector terminals (pins 1, 2, 5, 6), one base (pin 3), and one emitter (pin 4).
What is the typical VCE(sat) of CPH6153-TL-E under standard switching conditions?
The typical VCE(sat) of CPH6153-TL-E is −130 mV at IC = −1.5 A and IB = −75 mA, with a maximum of −195 mV under the same conditions. This low saturation voltage directly reduces conduction losses in high-current switching applications such as motor drivers and DC-DC converter rectification stages.
Is CPH6153-TL-E suitable for high-frequency switching applications?
Yes, CPH6153-TL-E supports high-frequency switching with a gain-bandwidth product (fT) of 400 MHz and switching times of ton = 35 ns and tf = 12 ns. These characteristics make it appropriate for PWM-based DC-DC converters operating up to ~1 MHz, provided gate/base drive strength and PCB layout minimize parasitic inductance.
