Product details
Overview
FMMT620TA from Diodes Incorporated is an 80V NPN silicon low-saturation transistor in SOT23 package, rated for 1.5A continuous collector current, 625mW power dissipation, and 90mΩ RCE(SAT) at IC = 1A/ IB = 20mA. It serves as a high-reliability switching element in DC-DC modules and motor drive stages where low conduction loss and AEC-Q101 qualification are required.
For engineers reviewing the FMMT620TA datasheet, FMMT620TA pinout, FMMT620TA application, or FMMT620TA equivalent, key selection criteria include VCEO = 80V, hFE ≥ 200 at IC = 10mA, RCE(SAT) ≤ 145mV at IC = 1.5A, thermal resistance RθJA = 200°C/W (FR4), and SOT23 mechanical compatibility with automated placement.
Technical Context
This NPN transistor operates in linear or saturated switching mode with BVCEO = 80V and BVCBO = 100V, enabling use in medium-voltage power control circuits. Its hFE remains ≥ 170 up to IC = 3A and ≥ 30 at IC = 5A, supporting stable gain across wide load ranges.
VCE(SAT) is specified at multiple operating points: 45mV (IC = 0.5A/IB = 50mA), 145mV (IC = 1A/IB = 20mA), and 160mV (IC = 1.5A/IB = 20mA), confirming low on-resistance behavior under design-relevant bias conditions.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCEO | 80 V - Maximum allowable collector-emitter voltage before breakdown in common-emitter configuration |
| IC (continuous) | 1.5 A - Continuous DC collector current rating defining steady-state switching capacity |
| RCE(SAT) | 90 mΩ - Equivalent on-resistance at IC = 1A/IB = 20mA, directly determining conduction loss |
| hFE | 200–450 - DC current gain range at IC = 10–1.5A/VCE = 2V, critical for base drive sizing |
| PD | 625 mW - Max steady-state power dissipation on FR4 PCB (25mm × 25mm, 1 oz Cu) |
| fT | 100–160 MHz - Transition frequency indicating usable bandwidth for high-speed switching |
| toff | 1128 ns - Turn-off delay limiting maximum switching frequency in hard-switched topologies |
Pinout & Package
Package: SOT23 - Surface-mount plastic package with matte tin-plated leads, moisture sensitivity level 1, UL 94V-0 flammability rating, and 0.008 g mass.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (Emitter) | E | Current return path; connected to ground or low-side reference in common-emitter switch configurations |
| 2 (Base) | B | Control input; requires ~50mA peak drive for full saturation at IC = 1.5A |
| 3 (Collector) | C | High-side current output; carries load current and supports 80V blocking capability |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| AEC-Q101 qualified | Validated for automotive-grade reliability including temperature cycling, HTRB, and ESD testing per stress test plan |
| Low RCE(SAT) | 90 mΩ enables <150 mW conduction loss at 1.5A, reducing thermal load in compact DC-DC layouts |
| High hFE up to 5A | Minimum hFE = 30 at IC = 5A ensures predictable saturation with modest base drive in pulse applications |
| Green compound | Halogen- and antimony-free molding compound (<900 ppm Br+Cl, <1000 ppm Sb) meets global environmental compliance mandates |
Applications
| DC-DC Modules | Power Management Functions |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar NPN low-saturation transistor applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ZXTN2012ZTA | VCEO = 60V, RCE(SAT) = 120mΩ @ IC = 1A, hFE = 200–400 | Limited to ≤60V systems; lower thermal robustness (RθJA = 250°C/W) | Select when cost priority outweighs voltage margin and thermal performance |
| MMBT6427LT1G | VCEO = 80V, RCE(SAT) = 150mΩ @ IC = 1A, hFE = 100–300 | Higher saturation voltage increases conduction loss by ~65% at 1.5A | Acceptable for non-critical 80V applications where gain consistency at high current is less critical |
Compared with ZXTN2012ZTA and MMBT6427LT1G, FMMT620TA delivers superior voltage margin (80V), lowest RCE(SAT), and highest hFE stability above 1A-making it optimal for thermally constrained, automotive-qualified, or high-efficiency DC-DC and motor drive designs.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous collector current for FMMT620TA?
The FMMT620TA is rated for 1.5A continuous collector current at TA = +25°C on a standard FR4 PCB (25mm × 25mm, 1 oz copper). Derating applies above 25°C ambient, with full derating to zero at +150°C junction temperature per the published curve.
Is FMMT620TA suitable for automotive applications?
Yes-FMMT620TA is AEC-Q101 qualified and PPAP capable. It meets automotive reliability requirements including temperature cycling, high-temperature reverse bias, and electrostatic discharge testing, and is marked "620" with AEC-Q101 compliance indicated in ordering code FMMT620TA.
What is the typical VCE(SAT) at 1.5A collector current?
At IC = 1.5A and IB = 20mA, VCE(SAT) is typically 160mV (max 200mV) per the datasheet's electrical characteristics table. This value was measured under pulsed conditions (≤300µs, ≤2% duty cycle) to avoid self-heating effects.
Does FMMT620TA require a heatsink in standard SOT23 mounting?
No external heatsink is required for typical operation within its 625mW steady-state power limit on a 25mm × 25mm FR4 board with 1 oz copper. Thermal resistance is RθJA = 200°C/W under those conditions, yielding ΔTJ-A ≈ 125°C at full power-well within the -55°C to +150°C operating range.
