Product details
Overview
FZT795ATA from Diodes Incorporated is a 140V PNP medium-power high-gain transistor in SOT223 package, rated for -500mA continuous collector current, with hFE > 250 at -0.2A and VCE(sat) ≤ -300mV at -100mA/-1mA drive-used in battery-powered load switching and voltage inversion circuits.
For engineers reviewing the FZT795ATA datasheet, FZT795ATA pinout, FZT795ATA application, or FZT795ATA equivalent, key selection criteria include breakdown voltage (BVCEO = -140V), thermal resistance (RθJA = 62.5°C/W on 25mm × 25mm PCB), gain linearity across -10mA to -500mA, and AEC-Q101 qualification for automotive-grade reliability.
Technical Context
This PNP bipolar junction transistor operates in linear or saturated switching modes, with complementary NPN pairing to FZT694B enabling push-pull stage design. Its high BVCEO (-140V) and low VCE(sat) support robust operation in high-voltage DC-DC feedback paths and industrial power rail control.
The device features thermally optimized SOT223 packaging with RθJL = 12.9°C/W to collector lead, enabling stable performance up to +150°C junction temperature. ESD ratings (HBM: 4kV, MM: 400V) and halogen/antimony-free "Green" construction meet automotive and industrial environmental compliance requirements.
Key Specifications

| hFE | 300–800 @ -10mA; ≥250 @ -200mA - ensures reliable base drive margin across operating range |
| VCE(sat) | -300mV @ -100mA/-1mA - minimizes conduction loss in high-efficiency switching nodes |
| RθJA | 62.5°C/W (25mm × 25mm PCB) - defines thermal derating slope for ambient-limited designs |
| fT | 100MHz - supports fast switching in PWM control loops up to ~10MHz practical frequency |
| ESD HBM | 4,000V - provides handling robustness during board assembly and field service |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar PNP high-voltage switching applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ZXTN25050DFHTA | 50V VCEO, SOT23 package, lower power (0.5W), hFE = 200 min @ -500mA | Not suitable for >60V systems; limited thermal mass for continuous conduction | Select only for space-constrained low-voltage logic-level switching where 140V rating is unnecessary |
| MJD2955T4G | TO-220 package, -70V VCEO, 10A IC, higher thermal mass but larger footprint | Over-specified current capability; incompatible pinout and mounting for SOT223-referenced layouts | Choose when >1A pulsed current or forced-air cooling is required, and board area permits TO-220 |
Compared with ZXTN25050DFHTA and MJD2955T4G, FZT795ATA uniquely balances 140V breakdown, SOT223 thermal performance, and automotive qualification-making it optimal for compact, high-reliability 48–100V industrial and automotive switching nodes where both voltage headroom and PCB real estate matter.

FAQ
What is the maximum safe operating temperature for FZT795ATA?
The FZT795ATA has an operating junction temperature range of -55°C to +150°C. Under continuous DC conditions on a 25mm × 25mm 2oz copper PCB, its maximum ambient temperature before reaching 150°C junction is approximately 87.5°C (calculated from RθJA = 62.5°C/W and PD = 2W). Derating is required above 25°C ambient per the published curve.
Is FZT795ATA pin-compatible with its complementary NPN FZT694B?
No-FZT795ATA (PNP) and FZT694B (NPN) share the same SOT223 package outline but have reversed pin assignments: FZT795ATA uses E-B-C (Emitter-Base-Collector) pin order, while FZT694B uses C-B-E. Layouts must account for this polarity reversal to avoid functional failure.
Does FZT795ATA require a base resistor, and what value is recommended?
Yes-a series base resistor is mandatory to limit IB and prevent thermal runaway. For -500mA collector current with hFE ≥ 250, minimum IB = -2mA is needed. With VBE(on) ≈ -0.75V and typical drive voltage of -5V, a 2.1kΩ resistor provides ~2mA drive while allowing margin for hFE variation and temperature drift.
Can FZT795ATA be used in linear amplifier configurations?
Yes-it is characterized for linear operation with specified hFE across -10mA to -500mA and VCE = -2V. However, its fT = 100MHz and moderate output capacitance (Cobo = 15pF) limit usable bandwidth to ~1–5MHz in common-emitter amplifiers; thermal limits constrain continuous dissipation to 2W on standard PCBs.
