Product details
Overview
MMBT2907AQ-7-F from Diodes Incorporated is a 60V, -600mA PNP small-signal transistor in SOT23 package, featuring AEC-Q101 qualification, 4000V HBM ESD rating, and hFE of 75–300 (at IC = -100µA to -500mA). It serves as a low-power switching and amplification device in automotive body control modules, LED drivers, and power management circuits.
For engineers reviewing the MMBT2907AQ-7-F datasheet, MMBT2907AQ-7-F pinout, MMBT2907AQ-7-F application, or MMBT2907AQ-7-F equivalent, key selection criteria include VCEO = -60V, IC = -600mA, VCE(sat) ≤ -1.6V at -500mA/-50mA, fT = 200MHz, and AEC-Q101 qualification for automotive-grade reliability.
Technical Context
This PNP bipolar junction transistor uses epitaxial planar die construction for stable gain and low leakage. Its complementary pairing with MMBT2222AQ enables push-pull and differential amplifier topologies in discrete analog signal paths.
Designed for operation across -55°C to +150°C, it delivers verified switching performance with ton = 45ns, toff = 100ns, and VBE(sat) ≤ -2.6V at high-current saturation (IC = -500mA, IB = -50mA), supporting fast digital interface and load-switching functions.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCEO | -60V - Supports rail-to-rail operation in 48V automotive subsystems and industrial 24V logic interfaces. |
| IC (continuous) | -600mA - Enables direct drive of medium-current loads such as relays, LEDs, and gate resistors in MOSFET bias networks. |
| hFE | 75–300 - Ensures predictable current amplification across wide operating range, reducing base drive circuit complexity. |
| VCE(sat) | ≤ -1.6V @ -500mA/-50mA - Minimizes conduction loss and self-heating in saturated switch applications. |
| fT | 200MHz - Allows use in high-speed pulse generation, oscillator feedback paths, and broadband pre-amplifier stages. |
| ESD HBM | 4000V - Provides robust handling during PCB assembly and field operation without external protection. |
| PD | 310mW (on FR-4, 1oz Cu) - Defines thermal derating envelope for continuous operation up to +125°C ambient. |
Pinout & Package
Package: SOT23 - Surface-mount plastic package with 3-pin configuration, 0.008g mass, UL 94V-0 rated molding compound, and matte tin-plated leads compliant with MIL-STD-202 solderability requirements.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (Emitter) | Current source terminal for PNP operation | Connected to higher potential rail; defines reference for base control and collector current sourcing. |
| 2 (Base) | Control input for minority-carrier injection | Receives negative bias relative to emitter to enable conduction; requires current-limited drive per hFE ratio. |
| 3 (Collector) | Current sink terminal | Delivers load current to ground or lower-potential node; voltage swing limited by VCEO and VCB ratings. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| AEC-Q101 qualified | Validated for automotive underhood and cabin applications with PPAP capability and IATF 16949 manufacturing. |
| Green compound packaging | Halogen- and antimony-free (<900ppm Br/Cl, <1000ppm Sb), fully RoHS 3 compliant per EU Directive 2015/863. |
| Low VCE(sat) at high current | -1.6V max at -500mA ensures <0.8W dissipation in switching mode, easing thermal design on compact PCBs. |
| High fT with low Cobo | 200MHz gain-bandwidth with 8.0pF output capacitance supports stable RF coupling and fast edge response. |
| Moisture sensitivity Level 1 | No floor-life limitation or bake requirement before reflow, simplifying SMT line logistics and inventory handling. |
Applications
| Automotive Body Control Unit | Industrial LED Driver |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Switching 12V/24V incandescent and LED loads in door modules, mirror controls, and interior lighting. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Discrete PNP switch controlling current path from battery rail to grounded load. Use Value: VCEO = -60V accommodates load-dump transients; AEC-Q101 ensures long-term reliability in temperature-cycled environments. |
Use Scenario: Constant-current sink for multi-segment status indicators and backlight arrays in HMIs and PLC panels. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Linear or PWM-controlled current regulator using emitter-follower or common-emitter topology. Use Value: hFE stability over IC range enables precise current setting with minimal base drive variation. |
| Power Supply Enable Circuit | Microcontroller GPIO Expander |
Use Scenario: Enabling/disabling auxiliary rails (e.g., 3.3V, 5V) in DC-DC converter sequencers and PMIC supervision paths. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: High-side switch controlled by low-voltage logic to assert enable signals to downstream regulators. Use Value: Low VBE(sat) (-1.3V) allows direct drive from 3.3V MCU outputs with series resistor, eliminating level-shifter need. |
Use Scenario: Extending digital I/O count for sensor interfacing, button scanning, or relay actuation in resource-constrained embedded designs. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Digital buffer/inverter stage translating MCU logic levels to higher-current drive capability. Use Value: Fast switching (toff = 100ns) supports >10kHz polling rates; 4000V HBM protects against ESD events on exposed front-panel traces. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar PNP small-signal transistor applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MMBT2907A (ON Semiconductor) | Same VCEO/IC ratings but non-AEC-Q101; hFE min 100 @ -150mA vs. Diodes' 75 @ -100µA. | Lacks automotive qualification and PPAP support; suitable for commercial-grade consumer or industrial equipment only. | Select when AEC-Q101 is not required and tighter hFE consistency at mid-current is prioritized. |
| PN2907A (Central Semiconductor) | Identical absolute max ratings but higher RθJA (450°C/W); no green compound or halogen-free certification stated. | Not RoHS 3 or "Green" compliant; moisture sensitivity unspecified - may require baking prior to reflow. | Choose only for legacy redesigns where material compliance and J-STD-020 Level 1 are not mandated. |
Compared with MMBT2907A and PN2907A, the MMBT2907AQ-7-F uniquely combines AEC-Q101 qualification, full RoHS 3/halogen-free compliance, and J-STD-020 Level 1 handling - making it the sole choice for new automotive designs requiring change-controlled supply chain traceability.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous collector current for MMBT2907AQ-7-F?
The maximum continuous collector current (IC) is -600mA at TA = +25°C. Derating applies above +25°C per the datasheet's thermal resistance curve (RθJA = 403°C/W on minimum pad layout). At +100°C ambient, usable IC drops to approximately -350mA to maintain junction temperature below 150°C.
Does MMBT2907AQ-7-F support lead-free reflow soldering?
Yes - the device features matte tin-plated leads qualified per MIL-STD-202, Method 208, and is compatible with standard Pb-free reflow profiles (peak temperature ≤ 260°C, 20–40 sec dwell). Its SOT23 package meets JEDEC J-STD-020 Level 1 moisture sensitivity, eliminating pre-bake requirements.
How does the hFE vary with collector current?
hFE ranges from 75 at IC = -100µA to 100 at -1.0mA, peaks at 300 near -10mA, then decreases to 50 at -500mA. This behavior reflects optimized doping profile for both low-current sensing and high-current switching - confirmed by Figure 4 in DS44333 Rev. 1-2.
Can MMBT2907AQ-7-F replace MMBT2907 in existing designs?
Yes, with qualification - the "Q" suffix denotes AEC-Q101 qualification, PPAP capability, and green compound compliance. Electrically identical to non-Q versions, but requires validation of thermal performance under automotive temperature cycling and confirmation of supply-chain traceability for automotive programs.
