Product details
Overview
DZT751-13 from Diodes Incorporated is a PNP bipolar junction transistor (BJT) optimized for medium-power switching and amplification, featuring low VCE(SAT) of –0.08 V at IC = –1 A / IB = –100 mA, VCEO = –60 V, IC = –3 A continuous, hFE = 300 at IC = –50 mA, and SOT-223 surface-mount package - used in DC-DC converter output stages and industrial relay drivers.
For engineers reviewing the DZT751-13 datasheet, DZT751-13 pinout, DZT751-13 application, or DZT751-13 equivalent, key selection criteria include verified low-saturation voltage under high-current drive, thermal resistance (RθJA = 125 °C/W on FR-4), complementary NPN pairing with DZT651, and RoHS-compliant lead-free plating validated per MIL-STD-202.
Technical Context
This PNP BJT employs epitaxial planar die construction to achieve stable gain and low saturation voltage across temperature. Its VCEO = –60 V and IC = –3 A rating support medium-power load switching in 24 V industrial control rails, while fT = 100–145 MHz enables use in moderate-speed digital interface buffering.
The device operates over –55 °C to +150 °C and exhibits ICBO ≤ –0.1 μA at VCB = –60 V, ensuring low leakage in standby-critical applications. Its SOT-223 package integrates a thermally enhanced emitter-tab footprint compatible with standard FR-4 PCB layouts per AP02001.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCEO | –60 V: Maximum safe collector-emitter voltage before breakdown in common-emitter configuration. |
| IC (cont.) | –3 A: Continuous collector current rating defining maximum DC load drive capability. |
| VCE(SAT) | –0.08 V @ IC = –1 A / IB = –100 mA: Confirmed low conduction loss enabling <100 mW dissipation at 1 A switch operation. |
| hFE | 300 @ IC = –50 mA: High DC current gain allowing low-base-drive current for efficient gate/base control. |
| fT | 100–145 MHz: Transition frequency confirming usable bandwidth up to ~100 MHz for signal amplification or fast switching. |
| RθJA | 125 °C/W (FR-4): Thermal resistance value specifying junction-to-ambient rise per watt - critical for heatsink-less PCB thermal design. |
| Tj Range | –55 to +150 °C: Validated operating junction temperature range supporting industrial and automotive under-hood environments. |
Pinout & Package
Package: SOT-223 - thermally enhanced plastic surface-mount package with exposed emitter tab (Pin 3), rated for 1 W power dissipation on FR-4 PCB per note 3.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (Emitter) | E | Primary current return path; electrically and thermally connected to large copper pad for heat sinking. |
| 2 (Base) | B | Control terminal; requires –100 mA base drive for full saturation at –1 A collector current. |
| 3 (Collector) | C | Main high-side current path; internally tied to metal tab for improved thermal conduction. |
| 4 (Collector) | C | Second collector connection - paralleled with Pin 3 to reduce bond-wire inductance and improve current sharing. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Low VCE(SAT) | –0.08 V at IC = –1 A ensures <80 mW conduction loss - reduces thermal stress in compact power stages. |
| High hFE | 300 at IC = –50 mA enables microcontroller-level base drive without external buffer stages. |
| SOT-223 thermal performance | RθJA = 125 °C/W on FR-4 allows 1 W operation without heatsink in ambient ≤50 °C. |
| RoHS & "Green" compliance | Lead-free matte tin plating and halogen-free molding compound meet IPC-J-STD-020C Level 1 moisture sensitivity. |
Applications
| DC-DC Converter Output Stage | Industrial Relay Driver |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Switching 24 V/2 A loads in isolated buck-derived auxiliary supplies. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Medium-power PNP switch controlling high-side output current path. Use Value: Low VCE(SAT) minimizes dropout and self-heating, improving efficiency and reliability over discrete alternatives. | Use Scenario: Driving 24 V DC coil relays in PLC I/O modules. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: High-current saturated switch interfacing microcontroller GPIO to inductive load. Use Value: 3 A IC rating and robust SOA allow direct drive without external flyback protection complexity. |
| LED String Current Regulator | Linear Voltage Regulator Pass Element |
Use Scenario: Constant-current sink for 12 V, 1.5 A LED arrays in signage systems. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Linear current-regulating pass transistor in feedback-controlled loop. Use Value: Stable hFE and low VCE(SAT) enable precise current setting with minimal headroom voltage. | Use Scenario: Pass element in 5 V/2 A linear regulator for noise-sensitive analog subsystems. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Series-pass transistor dissipating up to 12 W during dropout conditions. Use Value: SOT-223 thermal design supports 1 W continuous dissipation on standard PCB - simplifies thermal layout vs. TO-220. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar PNP medium-power switching applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ZXT751MPK | VCEO = –60 V, IC = –2.5 A, VCE(SAT) = –0.15 V @ –1 A - higher saturation voltage, lower current rating. | Less suitable for >2 A continuous loads; better suited for space-constrained designs due to SOT-89 footprint. | Select when board area is constrained and 2.5 A rating suffices; avoid where <100 mV VCE(SAT) is required. |
| MJD751T4G | VCEO = –60 V, IC = –3 A, VCE(SAT) = –0.25 V @ –2 A - higher saturation loss, TO-220 package. | Requires heatsink for >0.5 W dissipation; incompatible with automated SMT assembly. | Choose only for legacy through-hole designs or where TO-220 mechanical mounting is mandatory. |
Compared with ZXT751MPK and MJD751T4G, DZT751-13 delivers the lowest VCE(SAT) in an SMT-compatible SOT-223 package, enabling higher efficiency and simplified thermal management in automated production.

FAQ
What is the maximum safe operating temperature for DZT751-13?
The DZT751-13 has a specified junction temperature range of –55 °C to +150 °C. Its thermal resistance RθJA is 125 °C/W on FR-4 PCB (per note 3), meaning at 1 W dissipation and 50 °C ambient, junction temperature reaches 175 °C - exceeding rating. Derating per Fig. 1 is required above 50 °C ambient.
Is DZT751-13 pin-compatible with its NPN complement DZT651?
Yes - both DZT751-13 (PNP) and DZT651 (NPN) use identical SOT-223 packages with matching pinout: Pin 1 = Emitter, Pin 2 = Base, Pins 3 & 4 = Collector. This enables direct complementary pair implementation in H-bridge or push-pull output stages without layout redesign.
Does DZT751-13 require external base resistors in switching applications?
Yes - base current must be actively limited. With hFE = 300 at low current but dropping to ~80 at IC = –2 A, a typical design uses a 1 kΩ resistor between MCU GPIO and base to deliver ~4.5 mA base current, ensuring saturation at up to ~1.5 A collector load without overdriving.
Can DZT751-13 be used in linear regulator configurations?
Yes - its VCEO = –60 V, IC = –3 A, and SOA curves support linear operation. However, power dissipation must remain within derated limits: at 2 A load and 5 V dropout, 10 W dissipation exceeds SOT-223 capability. Use only for ≤1 W applications or with forced-air cooling and extended copper pour.
