Product details
Overview
DDTA143ZE-7 from Diodes Incorporated is a PNP pre-biased small-signal transistor in SOT523 package, featuring integrated bias resistors R1 = 4.7 kΩ and R2 = 47 kΩ (R1 ≠ R2), −50 V VCEO, −100 mA IC, and 80 hFE at −10 mA/−5 V, used for level-shifting and load switching in automotive body control modules.
For engineers reviewing the DDTA143ZE-7 datasheet, DDTA143ZE-7 pinout, DDTA143ZE-7 application, or DDTA143ZE-7 equivalent, key selection criteria include verified input voltage thresholds (VI(ON) = −2.5 V @ IO = −5 mA), saturation performance (VCE(SAT) ≤ −0.3 V), AEC-Q101 qualification, and SOT523 thermal resistance (RθJA = 833 °C/W).
Technical Context
This device integrates two discrete resistors (R1 = 4.7 kΩ, R2 = 47 kΩ) directly into a PNP bipolar junction transistor die to provide fixed base biasing-eliminating external components while maintaining predictable turn-on/off behavior under varying supply conditions. Its complementary NPN counterpart is DDTC143ZE-7.
The resistor ratio (R2/R1 ≈ 10) sets a stable current gain bias point, enabling reliable digital switching with defined logic thresholds. It operates across −55 °C to +150 °C and meets AEC-Q101 stress testing for automotive under-hood applications.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCEO | −50 V - supports rail-to-rail switching in 24 V automotive systems with margin |
| IC(MAX) | −100 mA - suitable for driving LED indicators, relays, and small solenoids |
| R1 / R2 | 4.7 kΩ / 47 kΩ - provides fixed base current limiting and ensures consistent turn-on at −2.5 V input |
| hFE | 80 (min) @ −10 mA/−5 V - guarantees sufficient current amplification for low-power digital interface loads |
| VCE(SAT) | ≤ −0.3 V @ −5 mA - minimizes conduction loss and self-heating in always-on control paths |
| PD | 150 mW - defines maximum continuous power handling on FR4 PCB with standard pad layout |
| fT | 250 MHz - indicates usable bandwidth for fast edge transitions in PWM-driven loads |
Pinout & Package
Package: SOT523 - ultra-small surface-mount plastic case (1.60 mm × 1.60 mm × 0.75 mm), moisture sensitivity level 1, matte tin-plated leads, UL 94V-0 rated.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar PNP pre-biased transistor applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| DDTA143ZM-7 | SOT323 package (larger footprint, RθJA = 430 °C/W), same R1/R2 values and electrical specs | Better thermal performance but occupies 3× more board area than SOT523 | Select when higher power dissipation (>100 mW continuous) is required and space permits |
| NSV143ZWT1G | Same SOT523 package, R1 = 4.7 kΩ, R2 = 47 kΩ, but only AEC-Q100 qualified (not Q101), fT = 200 MHz | Approved for infotainment systems but not under-hood engine control due to lower reliability grade | Select for cost-sensitive non-safety-critical interior modules where AEC-Q101 is not mandated |
Compared with DDTA143ZE-7, DDTA143ZM-7 trades miniaturization for thermal headroom, while NSV143ZWT1G offers identical form factor and biasing but lacks AEC-Q101 validation-making it unsuitable for safety-relevant automotive subsystems.

FAQ
What is the maximum allowable collector-emitter voltage for DDTA143ZE-7?
The absolute maximum VCEO rating is −50 V. This value is tested and guaranteed per AEC-Q101 stress conditions and applies at TA = 25 °C. Derating is required above 25 °C per the power dissipation curve in DS30318 Rev. 9–2, Figure 1, where usable VCEO decreases linearly with ambient temperature rise.
Can DDTA143ZE-7 be used as a direct replacement for a discrete PNP BJT plus two external resistors?
Yes-DDTA143ZE-7 replaces a PNP transistor (e.g., MMBT3906) plus 4.7 kΩ and 47 kΩ base resistors. Its internal R1–R2 topology matches standard resistor-biased configurations, and pinout (E-B-C) aligns with common SOT523 PNP layouts. No layout change is needed beyond removing the two resistors.
Does DDTA143ZE-7 support 3.3 V logic-level input drive?
No-it requires ≥ −2.5 V input to reliably saturate (per VI(ON) spec at −5 mA). A 3.3 V MCU GPIO cannot directly drive it in active mode. Use with inverted logic (e.g., open-drain 3.3 V output pulled up to −12 V) or add an inverter stage to generate compatible negative-going control signals.
Is the SOT523 package lead-free and RoHS-compliant?
Yes-DDTA143ZE-7 is fully lead-free and compliant with EU RoHS Directive 2015/863/EU (RoHS 3). Its matte tin-plated terminals meet MIL-STD-202 Method 208 solderability requirements, and the molding compound is halogen- and antimony-free ("Green") with Br+Cl < 1500 ppm and Sb < 1000 ppm.
