Product details
Overview
HN1C03FU-A(TE85L,F) from Toshiba is a dual NPN epitaxial silicon transistor in US6 package, designed for audio muting and signal switching applications. It features VEBO = 25 V (min), reverse hFE = 150 (typ. at VCE = −2 V, IC = −4 mA), RON = 1 Ω (typ. at IB = 5 mA), VCEO = 20 V, and fT = 30 MHz - enabling low-loss analog switching in compact consumer audio systems.
For engineers reviewing the HN1C03FU-A(TE85L,F) datasheet, HN1C03FU-A(TE85L,F) pinout, HN1C03FU-A(TE85L,F) application, or HN1C03FU-A(TE85L,F) equivalent, key selection criteria include dual-transistor integration in US6, high emitter-base breakdown voltage, verified reverse current gain, low saturation resistance, and confirmed switching timing (ton = 160 ns, tf = 130 ns).
Technical Context
This dual NPN transistor uses Toshiba's PCT (Planar Collector Technology) process to achieve stable hFE matching between Q1 and Q2, with common electrical characteristics across both devices. Its high VEBO (25 V min) supports robust biasing in AC-coupled muting paths, while low VCE(sat) (0.042 V typ.) ensures minimal insertion loss during ON-state operation.
The device delivers consistent switching performance: ton = 160 ns, tstg = 500 ns, and tf = 130 ns under standard test conditions (IC = 30 mA, IB = 3 mA). Cob = 4.8 pF (typ.) and fT = 30 MHz confirm suitability for audio-band and low-MHz signal routing without phase distortion.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCEO | 20 V - maximum collector-emitter voltage before breakdown; defines safe operating range in low-voltage audio switching rails. |
| VEBO | 25 V (min) - enables reliable base-emitter reverse biasing in muting circuits with ±15 V audio signal swing. |
| hFE | 200–1200 - wide DC current gain range supports flexible bias design; classified A (200–700) or B (350–1200). |
| VCE(sat) | 0.042 V (typ. at IC = 30 mA, IB = 3 mA) - ensures < 1.5 mW power dissipation per transistor during conduction. |
| fT | 30 MHz (typ.) - supports clean switching up to ~5 MHz square waves; sufficient for full-audio-band analog signal gating. |
| RON | 1 Ω (typ. at IB = 5 mA) - yields < 0.25 V drop at 250 mA load; critical for low-distortion audio path insertion. |
| Cob | 4.8 pF (typ. at VCB = 10 V) - minimizes capacitive crosstalk between channels in dual-channel mute applications. |
Pinout & Package
HN1C03FU-A(TE85L,F) is housed in the US6 (Ultra Super Mini, 6-lead) surface-mount package (JEITA package code 2-2J1A), measuring 1.6 × 2.8 × 0.9 mm with 0.65 mm lead pitch. The package supports reflow soldering and provides dual-transistor isolation in a footprint smaller than two discrete SOT-363 devices.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Q1 Emitter | Common emitter connection for first transistor; referenced to system ground or bias rail in muting configurations. |
| 2 | Q1 Base | Control input for Q1; driven by logic-level or analog control signal to enable/disable Q1 conduction. |
| 3 | Q1 Collector | Signal output node for Q1; connects to audio path where low-impedance ON-state is required. |
| 4 | Q2 Collector | Signal output node for Q2; used in stereo or differential mute paths requiring matched switching. |
| 5 | Q2 Base | Independent control input for Q2; allows asynchronous or synchronized dual-channel switching. |
| 6 | Q2 Emitter | Common emitter connection for second transistor; may be tied to same reference as Pin 1 or separately biased. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual NPN topology in single US6 package | Reduces PCB area by >40% vs. two SOT-323 transistors; enables matched thermal and electrical behavior. |
| High reverse hFE (150 typ.) | Ensures predictable turn-on in emitter-follower or reverse-active configurations used in analog switch bias networks. |
| Low VCE(sat) (0.042 V typ.) | Maintains signal integrity in audio paths with < 0.1% THD contribution at line-level signals (1 Vrms). |
| Matched electrical characteristics (Q1/Q2) | Guarantees ≤10% gain and timing variation between channels - essential for stereo balance in muting. |
| US6 package with 0.65 mm pitch | Compatible with standard 0.5 mm stencil apertures and automated optical inspection (AOI) workflows. |
Applications
| Audio Muting in Consumer Receivers | Headphone Jack Detection Switching |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Silent startup/shutdown muting in AV receivers to prevent pop/click noise during power sequencing. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Dual NPN switch placed in series with left/right audio outputs; activated synchronously via microcontroller GPIO. Use Value: Low RON (1 Ω) and fast tf (130 ns) eliminate audible artifacts; matched Q1/Q2 ensures identical channel attenuation. | Use Scenario: Detecting plug insertion and routing audio to headphones instead of speakers in portable media players. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Q1 senses tip-ring contact closure; Q2 routes signal path using emitter-follower configuration. Use Value: High VEBO (25 V) withstands transient voltages from mechanical contact bounce; low Cob (4.8 pF) prevents high-frequency crosstalk. |
| Line-Level Signal Gating in Studio Mixers | DC Bias Control in RF Front-Ends |
Use Scenario: Channel solo/mute functions in analog mixing consoles requiring zero-crossing switching. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Transistor pair acts as bidirectional analog switch in series with balanced line drivers. Use Value: fT = 30 MHz preserves harmonic content up to 15 kHz; matched hFE ensures consistent gain staging across channels. | Use Scenario: Enabling/disabling bias to LNA stages in SDR transceivers during sleep/wake cycles. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Q1 controls VCC to LNA; Q2 monitors supply status via reverse hFE sensing. Use Value: Reverse hFE = 150 (typ.) enables accurate low-current bias monitoring; TJ max = 150°C supports industrial ambient operation. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual NPN switching applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| UMX2N (NXP) | US6 package, VCEO = 50 V, hFE = 80–320 (lower gain range), RON ≈ 1.5 Ω (typ.) | Better suited for higher-voltage switching (>30 V rails); less optimal for low-distortion audio due to higher RON. | Select when system VCC exceeds 20 V or when wider VCEO margin is prioritized over audio fidelity. |
| EMH2 (ROHM) | US6 package, VCEO = 20 V, hFE = 120–470, RON = 0.8 Ω (typ.), fT = 200 MHz | Higher fT enables RF bias control up to 100 MHz; lower RON improves efficiency but increases cost. | Prefer for RF front-end bias switching where speed >30 MHz matters; avoid if audio THD < 0.05% is required. |
Compared with UMX2N and EMH2, HN1C03FU-A(TE85L,F) offers the best balance of low RON (1 Ω), high VEBO (25 V), and verified audio-band switching fidelity - making it optimal for cost-sensitive, space-constrained consumer audio muting where precise channel matching is mandatory.
