Product details
Overview
DN0150ADJ-7 from Diodes Incorporated is a dual NPN epitaxial planar transistor in SOT-963 package, rated for 60 V VCBO, 50 V VCEO, 100 mA IC continuous, with hFE = 120–240 at IC = 2 mA and VCE = 6 V, used in compact signal switching and biasing circuits in portable power management and LED driver stages.
For engineers reviewing the DN0150ADJ-7 datasheet, DN0150ADJ-7 pinout, DN0150ADJ-7 application, or DN0150ADJ-7 equivalent, key selection criteria include verified dual-NPN matching, ultra-small SOT-963 footprint, guaranteed hFE range, low VCE(SAT) ≤ 0.25 V at IC = 100 mA/IB = 10 mA, and RoHS-compliant matte tin terminations.
Technical Context
This device integrates two matched NPN transistors on a single die using epitaxial planar construction, enabling precise current mirroring and differential pair operation in space-constrained analog front-ends. Its 1.0 mm × 1.0 mm SOT-963 package supports high-density automated assembly with Level 1 moisture sensitivity and UL 94V-0 molding compound.
Electrical behavior is characterized under pulsed conditions (300 µs, ≤2% duty cycle), with fT = 60 MHz at VCE = 10 V/IE = −1 mA and Cob = 1.3 pF at VCB = 10 V/f = 1 MHz - confirming suitability for low-power RF coupling and fast-switching digital logic interface functions.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Device Type | Dual NPN bipolar junction transistor (BJT), discrete active switch/amplifier |
| VCEO | 50 V - maximum safe collector-emitter voltage before breakdown in common-emitter configuration |
| IC (continuous) | 100 mA - absolute max DC collector current per transistor without derating |
| hFE Range | 120–240 at VCE = 6 V, IC = 2 mA - defines small-signal current gain consistency for bias network design |
| VCE(SAT) | 0.10–0.25 V at IC = 100 mA, IB = 10 mA - ensures low conduction loss in saturated switching applications |
| fT | 60 MHz - usable bandwidth limit for small-signal amplification up to mid-VHF range |
| RθJA | 417 °C/W - thermal resistance from junction to ambient on FR-4 PCB with minimum pad layout |
Pinout & Package
SOT-963 is a 6-pin ultra-small surface-mount plastic package (1.0 mm × 1.0 mm × 0.5 mm), lead-free and RoHS compliant, with matte tin-plated copper leadframe and UL 94V-0 mold compound.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Emitter of Q1 | Low-impedance current sink node for first transistor; tied to ground or bias reference in switch/driver topologies |
| 2 | Base of Q1 | Control input for Q1; requires ~10 mA drive for full saturation at 100 mA load |
| 3 | Collector of Q1 | High-side output node for Q1; connects to load or next stage collector pull-up |
| 4 | Collector of Q2 | High-side output node for second transistor; enables dual independent or mirrored switching paths |
| 5 | Base of Q2 | Independent control input for Q2; allows asynchronous or complementary drive |
| 6 | Emitter of Q2 | Second low-impedance sink node; supports dual-channel current sensing or parallel operation |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual matched NPN topology | Enables compact current mirror, differential amplifier, or push-pull driver without discrete pairing |
| SOT-963 ultra-small footprint | Reduces PCB area by >50% vs. dual-SOT-23; supports ≥0402-level density in portable designs |
| hFE binning (A-grade) | Guaranteed 120–240 gain range ensures predictable base drive requirements across production lots |
| RoHS-compliant matte tin terminations | Ensures reliable solderability per MIL-STD-202 Method 208 and compatibility with lead-free reflow profiles |
Applications
| LED Driver Stage | Portable Power Sequencing |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Driving dual-color indicator LEDs in wearables with shared anode/cathode topology. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Dual NPN switch controlling cathode-side current for red/green LEDs independently. Use Value: Matched hFE and low VCE(SAT) minimize color intensity mismatch and thermal drift across operating temperature range (−55°C to +150°C). | Use Scenario: Enabling/disabling auxiliary rails (e.g., sensor bias, display backlight) during system boot-up sequence. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Dual low-side switch sequencing power to downstream ICs based on microcontroller GPIO signals. Use Value: SOT-963 footprint saves board space while 100 mA rating supports typical sensor rail loads (≤50 mA) with margin. |
| Signal-Level Translation | Current Mirror Reference |
Use Scenario: Level-shifting 1.8 V logic outputs to 5 V domains in mixed-voltage IoT edge nodes. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: NPN-based open-collector translator with pull-up to higher rail; dual structure supports bidirectional or dual-channel translation. Use Value: 60 MHz fT and low Cob (1.3 pF) preserve signal integrity up to 10 Mbps without added capacitance loading. | Use Scenario: Generating matched bias currents for op-amp input stages or ADC reference buffers in medical sensor front-ends. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Precision current mirror core where Q1 sets reference current and Q2 replicates it to load. Use Value: Monolithic dual-die construction ensures <±3% current matching over temperature, eliminating discrete pair drift. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual-NPN switching applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| DST847BDJ | Higher hFE (200–400), same SOT-963 package and pinout; recommended replacement per Diodes' obsolescence notice | Improved current gain reduces required base drive; suitable for same LED driver and power switch roles | Select when higher gain and lower base current consumption are prioritized |
| MBT3904DW1T1G | Same dual-NPN function but in SOT-363; hFE = 100–300, VCEO = 40 V, PD = 200 mW | Lower voltage rating and power dissipation limit use to ≤40 V, low-power signal paths only | Choose only if legacy SOT-363 footprint compatibility is mandatory and voltage stress remains <40 V |
Compared with DN0150ADJ-7, DST847BDJ offers higher gain and direct obsolescence replacement status, while MBT3904DW1T1G trades voltage/power capability for broader distributor availability in legacy packaging - making DST847BDJ the preferred upgrade path for new designs.

FAQ
Is DN0150ADJ-7 still in production?
No - DN0150ADJ-7 is officially obsolete and discontinued per Diodes' datasheet DS31484 Rev. 4. It is no longer manufactured, but Aetrix Electronics maintains limited legacy stock with full traceability and supports last-time buys for continuity-critical programs.
What is the pin compatibility between DN0150ADJ-7 and DST847BDJ?
DN0150ADJ-7 and DST847BDJ share identical SOT-963 packaging and pinout (Emitter1/Base1/Collector1/Collector2/Base2/Emitter2), enabling direct PCB-level replacement without layout changes or redesign.
Can DN0150ADJ-7 be used in automotive applications?
While DN0150ADJ-7 meets AEC-Q101 stress test requirements per Diodes' internal qualification, it lacks official AEC-Q101 certification documentation. Use in automotive applications requires customer-level validation per ISO/TS 16949 and functional safety assessment.
What is the maximum allowable power dissipation at 85°C ambient?
At TA = 85°C, maximum power dissipation is 187.5 mW, calculated from PD = 300 mW × (1 − (85 − 25)/417) using RθJA = 417 °C/W and derating slope of 0.72 mW/°C above 25°C.
