Product details
Overview
DDC143TH-7 from Diodes Incorporated is an NPN pre-biased dual small-signal transistor in SOT-563 package, featuring integrated 4.7 kΩ and 10 kΩ bias resistors, 50 V VCEO, 100 mA IO, and hFE of 100–600 at IC = 1 mA. It operates as a compact logic-level switch in digital interface circuits for microcontroller I/O expansion and LED driver stages.
For engineers reviewing the DDC143TH-7 datasheet, DDC143TH-7 pinout, DDC143TH-7 application, or DDC143TH-7 equivalent, key selection criteria include input voltage thresholds (VIN(OFF) ≤ 0.5 V, VIN(ON) ≥ 1.9 V), output saturation voltage (VCE(sat) ≤ 0.3 V @ IC/IB = 1 mA/0.1 mA), thermal resistance (RθJA = 833 °C/W), and RoHS-compliant green construction.
Technical Context
This dual NPN transistor integrates two independent pre-biased elements sharing common emitter connections, each with dedicated base resistors (R1 = 4.7 kΩ, R2 = 10 kΩ) enabling direct TTL/CMOS logic interfacing without external bias networks. Its epitaxial planar die construction ensures stable hFE across temperature (−55°C to +150°C).
The device supports rail-to-rail input operation up to 40 V, delivers 100 mA maximum output current per channel, and maintains low VCE(sat) under 0.3 V-critical for minimizing power loss in high-duty-cycle switching applications such as level translation and load control.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCEO | 50 V - Maximum collector-emitter voltage before breakdown; enables use in 24 V industrial control rails. |
| IO (max) | 100 mA - Continuous output current per channel; sufficient for driving LEDs, relays, or logic inputs. |
| hFE | 100–600 - DC current gain at IC = 1 mA, VCE = 5 V; ensures reliable saturation with low base drive. |
| VCE(sat) | ≤ 0.3 V @ IC/IB = 1 mA/0.1 mA - Low saturation voltage reduces conduction loss and self-heating. |
| RθJA | 833 °C/W - Thermal resistance on FR4 board; defines safe power derating above 25°C ambient. |
| PD | 150 mW - Maximum power dissipation at TA = 25°C; limits continuous operation in compact layouts. |
| Package | SOT-563 - 6-pin ultra-small surface-mount package; footprint compatible with automated placement and reflow. |
Pinout & Package
SOT-563 is a 6-pin, dual-row, leadless plastic package measuring 2.2 mm × 1.7 mm × 0.6 mm (L × W × H), rated UL 94V-0, with matte tin annealed terminals solderable per MIL-STD-202 Method 208.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Emitter 1 | Common emitter connection for first NPN transistor; tied internally to Pin 4. |
| 2 | Base 1 | Input node for first transistor; connected to internal 4.7 kΩ resistor (R1) to Pin 3. |
| 3 | Collector 1 | Output node for first transistor; requires external load to VCC. |
| 4 | Emitter 2 | Common emitter connection for second NPN transistor; tied internally to Pin 1. |
| 5 | Base 2 | Input node for second transistor; connected to internal 10 kΩ resistor (R2) to Pin 6. |
| 6 | Collector 2 | Output node for second transistor; independent switching path from Collector 1. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Integrated bias network | Two matched on-die resistors (R1 = 4.7 kΩ, R2 = 10 kΩ) eliminate four external components per channel. |
| Green construction | Halogen- and antimony-free (<900 ppm Br/Cl, <1000 ppm Sb); meets EU RoHS 2 and JEDEC J-STD-020 Level 1 MSL. |
| Dual-channel isolation | Electrically independent collector paths (Pins 3 & 6) with shared emitter (Pins 1 & 4); enables synchronous or asynchronous switching. |
| Low-input-threshold logic compatibility | VIN(OFF) ≤ 0.5 V and VIN(ON) ≥ 1.9 V at VCC = 5 V ensure robust noise margin against 3.3 V/5 V CMOS outputs. |
Applications
| Microcontroller I/O Expander | LED Driver Stage |
|---|---|
|

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Dual NPN switch translating MCU logic levels to higher-current loads; no external biasing required. Use Value: Reduces BOM count by 4 resistors per channel and saves PCB area versus discrete transistor + resistor solutions. |
Use Scenario: Driving 20 mA indicator LEDs in industrial HMIs where space and thermal budget are constrained. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Constant-current sink switch with guaranteed VCE(sat) ≤ 0.3 V at 20 mA, minimizing LED forward-voltage drop impact. Use Value: Enables uniform brightness across dual LEDs without individual current-limiting resistors. |
| Logic-Level Translator | Relay Driver Interface |
|
Use Scenario: Interfacing 1.8 V FPGA I/O banks to 5 V sensor modules requiring clean level shift without timing skew. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Voltage-tolerant input stage (VIN = −10 V to +30 V) with fast turn-on/off due to optimized R1/R2 ratio. Use Value: Eliminates need for dedicated level-shifter ICs while maintaining signal integrity below 10 MHz. |
Use Scenario: Controlling 12 V/24 V electromagnetic relays in building automation panels using 3.3 V microcontroller outputs. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: High-gain (hFE ≥ 100) saturated switch delivering 100 mA per coil with minimal base drive (≤ 0.1 mA). Use Value: Prevents relay chatter during brown-out conditions via guaranteed turn-on at VIN ≥ 1.9 V. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar pre-biased dual NPN transistor applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| DDC114TH-7 | R1 = 10 kΩ, R2 = 10 kΩ (vs. 4.7 kΩ/10 kΩ); lower input sensitivity (VIN(ON) = 3.0 V min) | Better noise immunity in high-EMI environments; less suitable for weak-drive 1.8 V logic | Select when higher VIN(ON) improves system robustness and base current margin is not constrained. |
| NSVD2C200LT1G | Single-channel, SOT-23-3; R1 = 4.7 kΩ, R2 = 4.7 kΩ; hFE = 160–400; PD = 200 mW | Requires two devices for dual functionality; larger footprint than SOT-563 but higher power rating | Choose when higher power handling (>150 mW) or single-channel modularity outweighs space and BOM advantages of dual configuration. |
Compared with DDC114TH-7, DDC143TH-7 offers lower input threshold and faster turn-on for marginal-drive logic; versus NSVD2C200LT1G, it delivers dual-channel integration and 30% smaller board area at the cost of 50 mW lower power rating.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating temperature for DDC143TH-7?
The DDC143TH-7 has an operating junction temperature range of −55°C to +150°C, with thermal resistance RθJA = 833 °C/W on standard FR4 PCB. Derating begins linearly above +25°C ambient, reaching zero power at +150°C junction temperature per the datasheet's Fig. 1 derating curve.
Can DDC143TH-7 replace a discrete 2N3904 + two resistors?
Yes-it replaces one 2N3904 plus two 4.7 kΩ and 10 kΩ bias resistors per channel, reducing component count, layout area, and assembly steps. Its guaranteed hFE (100–600) and VCE(sat) (≤0.3 V) meet or exceed typical 2N3904 performance under identical bias conditions.
Is DDC143TH-7 pin-compatible with other DDC-series parts in SOT-563?
Yes-all DDC/ DDA parts in SOT-563 share identical mechanical pinout and terminal assignments (Pins 1–6). Electrical differences (R1, R2, VIN thresholds) do not affect physical mounting or soldering, enabling drop-in substitution during prototyping or qualification.
Does DDC143TH-7 support 1.8 V logic input directly?
No-its specified VIN(ON) minimum is 1.9 V at IO = 20 mA, making it unsuitable for guaranteed turn-on with 1.8 V logic. For 1.8 V systems, DDC123JH-7 (VIN(ON) = 1.1 V) or DDC114YH-7 (VIN(ON) = 1.4 V) are validated alternatives per the datasheet's electrical characteristics table.
