Product details
Overview
DXTN3C100PDQ-13 from Diodes Incorporated is a dual NPN low-saturation transistor in PowerDI5060-8 package, rated for 100V VCEO, 3A continuous collector current, and 90mΩ typical RCE(sat); used in automotive motor drive and linear-mode voltage regulators where high-voltage switching with low conduction loss is required.
For engineers reviewing the DXTN3C100PDQ-13 datasheet, DXTN3C100PDQ-13 pinout, DXTN3C100PDQ-13 application, or DXTN3C100PDQ-13 equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical parameters, AEC-Q101 qualification status, thermal derating curves, and validated alternative transistors for automotive-grade power switching design.
Technical Context
This dual NPN transistor supports linear-mode operation with guaranteed 100V BVCEO and 7V VEBO, enabling robust biasing in high-side configurations. Its 130MHz fT and sub-1µs turn-off time (toff = 660ns) support moderate-speed switching in regulated power stages.
The device features matched die characteristics across both transistors, with hFE ranging from 10–40 at 3A/10V and RCE(sat) tightly specified at 90–150mΩ under 3A/300mA drive-critical for parallel current sharing and thermal balance in dual-output regulators.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCEO | 100 V - Enables use in 48V automotive systems with 2× safety margin against transients. |
| IC (continuous) | 3 A - Supports sustained load currents in motor H-bridge half-bridges and linear pass elements. |
| RCE(sat) (typ) | 90 mΩ - Limits conduction loss to ≤810mW at 3A, reducing heatsink requirements. |
| toff | 660 ns - Allows PWM operation up to ~150kHz with minimal switching overlap loss. |
| hFE @ 3A | 10–40 - Dictates minimum base drive current (300mA) needed for full saturation in linear mode. |
| RθJA | 85 °C/W - Requires ≥25mm² 1oz copper pad for safe 1.47W dissipation at +25°C ambient. |
| AEC-Q101 | Qualified - Validated for automotive underhood applications per stress test requirements. |
Pinout & Package
Package: PowerDI5060-8/SWP (Type UXD), surface-mount, thermally enhanced plastic housing with exposed collector leads for low RθJL (5.7°C/W).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| C1, C2 | Collector (Dual) | Electrically isolated collectors; each tied to separate external copper pour for independent thermal management. |
| B1, B2 | Base (Dual) | Independent base terminals enable asynchronous control of each transistor; no internal connection. |
| E1, E2 | Emitter (Dual) | Separate emitters allow differential sensing or split-load topologies without shared emitter impedance. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Low RCE(sat) | 90mΩ typ at IC=1A/IB=50mA - Reduces I²R loss by >40% vs. standard bipolar transistors in 12–48V linear regulators. |
| High VCEO | 100V - Supports direct interface with 48V battery rails and transient clamping without external snubbers. |
| Dual isolated die | Matched hFE and VCE(sat) tracking - Enables precise current balancing in paralleled output stages or push-pull drivers. |
| AEC-Q101 qualified | PPAP-capable, IATF16949 manufacturing - Meets automotive change control, traceability, and reliability requirements for Tier-1 suppliers. |
Applications
| Automotive Motor Drive | Linear Mode Voltage Regulator |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Driving brushed DC motors in HVAC actuators and seat positioners in 12V/48V vehicle architectures. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Dual NPN switch in half-bridge configuration, sinking load current during active low-side phase.

Use Value: 150°C max junction temperature and 85°C/W RθJA allow stable operation under sustained overload without external thermal sensors. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual NPN low-saturation transistor applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| DXTP3C100PDQ-13 | Complementary PNP pair; same package, 100V rating, but lower |IC| (2.5A) and higher |RCE(sat)| (120mΩ typ). | Suitable only for complementary push-pull or totem-pole output stages-not direct replacement in NPN-only circuits. | Select when building symmetrical driver stages requiring matched NPN/PNP characteristics. |
| DMT3006LPSQ-13 | Single N-channel MOSFET (30V, 6.5A, 22mΩ); no bipolar gain, gate-driven, lower RDS(on) but no linear-mode stability guarantee. | Replaces DXTN3C100PDQ-13 only in switched-mode applications; unsuitable for linear regulation due to lack of safe operating area control. | Choose for high-efficiency PWM motor control where gate drive capability and low on-resistance outweigh linear-mode needs. |
Compared with DXTP3C100PDQ-13 and DMT3006LPSQ-13, DXTN3C100PDQ-13 uniquely combines dual NPN topology, 100V rating, and proven linear-mode SOA-making it irreplaceable in automotive linear regulators and analog current sinks where bipolar stability and voltage headroom are mandatory.

FAQ
What is the maximum allowable junction temperature for DXTN3C100PDQ-13?
The absolute maximum junction temperature is +150°C, with storage temperature extending to the same range. Operation above this limit risks permanent degradation of hFE and increased leakage; thermal design must ensure RθJA × PD + TA ≤ 150°C, especially under sustained 3A loads.
Does DXTN3C100PDQ-13 support linear-mode operation with stable Safe Operating Area (SOA)?
Yes-the datasheet provides SOA curves for DC, single-pulse, and repetitive pulse conditions, confirming stable linear operation up to 3A/100V with appropriate PCB copper area. Its SOA is validated for automotive-grade thermal cycling and is not limited by secondary breakdown like older bipolar processes.
How does the PowerDI5060-8 package improve thermal performance over traditional SOT-23 or TO-252?
The PowerDI5060-8 exposes both collector leads directly to PCB copper, achieving RθJL = 5.7°C/W-nearly 3× better than TO-252's typical 15°C/W. This allows 1.47W dissipation with only 25mm² of 1oz copper, reducing heatsink dependency in space-constrained automotive modules.
Is DXTN3C100PDQ-13 pin-compatible with any industry-standard dual-transistor packages?
No-it uses the proprietary PowerDI5060-8/SWP (Type UXD) footprint, which differs from SO-8, MSOP-8, or PowerPAK-8 layouts. Pad dimensions and lead pitch (1.27mm) require dedicated land patterns; migration requires PCB redesign and thermal validation per Diodes' recommended layout guidelines.
