Product details
Overview
FMMT625TA from Diodes Incorporated is a 150V NPN silicon low-saturation transistor in SOT23 package, rated for 1A continuous collector current, 625mW power dissipation, and characterized with hFE up to 450 at IC = 3A. It serves as a high-voltage switching element in DC-DC modules and motor drive stages where robust breakdown voltage and low VCE(SAT) are critical.
For engineers reviewing the FMMT625TA datasheet, FMMT625TA pinout, FMMT625TA application, or FMMT625TA equivalent, key selection criteria include BVCEO ≥ 150V, VCE(SAT) ≤ 300 mV at IC = 1A/IB = 50mA, AEC-Q101 qualification, SOT23 thermal resistance (RθJA = 200°C/W), and ESD HBM ≥ 8 kV.
Technical Context
This NPN transistor is optimized for high-voltage switching with guaranteed BVCEO = 150 V and low saturation voltage - VCE(SAT) = 110 mV at IC = 0.1A/IB = 1mA and 300 mV at IC = 1A/IB = 50mA. Its fT = 135 MHz supports fast switching in power management circuits.
Thermal design is enabled by RθJL = 194°C/W (junction-to-leads) and derating to zero power at +150°C ambient. The device operates across –55°C to +150°C and meets J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity Level 1.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCBO / VCEO | 150 V - Enables use in 100–125V bus applications with margin against transients |
| IC (continuous) | 1 A - Supports medium-power switching loads without forced cooling |
| PD (TA = 25°C) | 625 mW - Limits usable power in SOT23 without heatsinking or airflow |
| VCE(SAT) @ IC=1A | 300 mV - Reduces conduction loss to <300 mW at full rated current |
| hFE @ IC=1A | 15–45 - Ensures reliable base drive design with 50 mA IB for full saturation |
| fT | 135 MHz - Allows stable operation up to ~10–20 MHz switching frequencies |
| ESD HBM | ≥8,000 V - Permits handling in standard assembly environments without special ESD controls |
Pinout & Package
Package: SOT23 - surface-mount plastic package with 0.008 g mass, UL 94V-0 rating, and matte tin-plated leads solderable per MIL-STD-202.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar NPN high-voltage switching applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ZXTN2012ZTA | Higher VCEO = 200 V; lower VCE(SAT) = 170 mV @ 1A; SOT89 package (higher PD = 2.5 W) | Supports >150 V systems; requires larger footprint and different thermal layout | Select when higher voltage margin or higher continuous power is required |
| FMMT417TA | Lower VCEO = 60 V; same SOT23 package; hFE = 100–300 @ IC = 500 mA | Not suitable for >60 V applications; better for low-voltage logic-level switching | Select only for sub-60 V designs where space and cost constrain package choice |
Compared with ZXTN2012ZTA and FMMT417TA, FMMT625TA uniquely balances 150 V capability, SOT23 compactness, and automotive qualification - making it optimal for space-constrained, high-reliability 48–120 V industrial and automotive power stages.

FAQ
What is the maximum safe operating voltage for FMMT625TA in continuous DC applications?
The absolute maximum collector-emitter voltage (VCEO) is 150 V, and the datasheet guarantees BVCEO ≥ 150 V at IC = 1 mA. For reliable long-term operation, design should maintain VCE ≤ 120 V to accommodate transients and ensure margin against degradation. Derating is required above 25°C ambient per the published thermal curve.
Can FMMT625TA be used in linear (active-region) applications like constant-current sources?
Yes - its hFE is characterized from 10 mA to 3 A and VBE(ON) is specified at 0.74–1.0 V (IC = 1 A). With 625 mW power dissipation limit, it supports up to ~500 mA at 1.25 V drop (e.g., LED driver), provided junction temperature remains ≤150°C using appropriate PCB copper area and ambient conditions.
Is the SOT23 footprint of FMMT625TA compatible with standard pick-and-place equipment?
Yes - the SOT23 outline conforms to JEDEC MO-178AB, with standardized pad dimensions (e.g., 0.915 mm width, 1.30 mm length) and 0.95 mm pitch. Diodes provides recommended SOT23 pad layouts on its website, and the device's matte tin plating ensures compatibility with standard reflow profiles and no-clean fluxes.
Does FMMT625TA require external base resistors in switching applications?
Yes - base current must be limited to avoid exceeding IB = 500 mA absolute maximum. For 1 A collector current and minimum hFE = 15, ≥33 mA base drive is needed; typical designs use 1–10 kΩ series resistors from a 3.3–5 V logic source. The device does not integrate base resistors and relies on external bias network for saturation control.
