Product details

Overview

MPS6652RLRAG from onsemi is a PNP bipolar junction transistor (BJT) designed for general-purpose amplification and switching in low-to-medium power linear and digital circuits, with V_CEO = 40 V, I_C = 1000 mA continuous, and h_FE ≥ 30 at I_C = 1000 mA. It operates across −55 °C to +150 °C and is commonly used in relay drivers, power supply control stages, and discrete logic interface circuits.

For engineers reviewing the MPS6652RLRAG datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include its PNP polarity, TO-92 package thermal performance (R_θJC = 83.3 °C/W), saturation voltage (V_CE(sat) ≤ 0.6 V at I_C/I_B = 10), and compatibility with lead-free reflow processes.

Technical Context

This PNP transistor features a silicon planar epitaxial structure optimized for stable DC current gain (h_FE) across collector currents from 10 mA to 1000 mA, with guaranteed minimum h_FE = 30 at high-current saturation conditions (I_C = 1000 mA, V_CE = 1.0 V). Its f_T = 100 MHz enables use in medium-frequency amplifier stages up to ~30 MHz.

Thermal design is supported by validated junction-to-case resistance (R_θJC = 83.3 °C/W) and junction-to-ambient resistance (R_θJA = 200 °C/W on standard PCB), while safe operating area (SOA) curves confirm capability for pulsed switching with V_CC = −40 V and I_C up to −1 A under defined duty cycles.

Key Specifications

Parameter	Value and Actual Design Meaning
V_CEO	40 V - Maximum allowable collector-emitter voltage before breakdown; defines upper rail limit in PNP switch or amplifier stage.
I_C (continuous)	1000 mA - Continuous collector current rating; supports load switching up to ~1 A with appropriate base drive and heatsinking.
V_CE(sat)	≤ 0.6 V at I_C = 1000 mA, I_B = 100 mA - Low saturation voltage minimizes conduction loss and self-heating in switching applications.
h_FE	≥ 30 at I_C = 1000 mA, V_CE = 1.0 V - Confirmed DC current gain at full rated current; ensures reliable base drive sizing for saturated switching.
f_T	100 MHz - Current-gain bandwidth product; supports small-signal amplification up to ~30 MHz with usable gain margin.
R_θJC	83.3 °C/W - Junction-to-case thermal resistance; enables direct mounting to heatsink or metal chassis for thermal management.
T_J range	−55 °C to +150 °C - Extended junction temperature range supports operation in automotive under-hood and industrial control environments.

Pinout & Package

Package: TO-92 (Case 29-11, Style 17), Pb-free, through-hole compatible. Dimensions per onsemi specification: 4.45–5.20 mm (L) × 4.32–5.33 mm (W) × 3.18–4.19 mm (H), with bent leads for tape-and-reel (RLRA) orientation.

Pin/Terminal	Circuit Role	Design Meaning
1	Emitter	Current sink terminal; connected to most positive rail in PNP common-emitter configuration; requires robust trace routing for 1 A paths.
2	Base	Control input; requires current-limited drive (typically 10–100 mA) to achieve full saturation; polarity is negative relative to emitter.
3	Collector	Output terminal; tied to load and ground reference; reverse voltage polarity versus NPN devices (collector more negative than emitter).

Key Features

Feature	Design Value
PNP polarity with negative voltage/current convention	Enables complementary use with NPN devices like MPS6601 in push-pull or differential pair topologies without signal inversion logic.
Pb-free TO-92 package	Complies with RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU and supports lead-free reflow soldering profiles (peak ≤ 260 °C).
Guaranteed h_FE ≥ 30 at I_C = 1000 mA	Reduces required base drive current and simplifies driver circuit design for high-current switching applications.
V_CEO = 40 V rating	Supports 24 V and 36 V industrial control rails with 2× safety margin, eliminating need for external clamping in many cases.
Low V_CE(sat) ≤ 0.6 V	Limits power dissipation to ≤ 600 mW at 1 A, easing thermal design versus higher-V_sat alternatives.

Equivalent & Alternatives

The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar PNP BJT switching and amplification applications.

Alternative Part	Technical Difference	Application Difference	Selection Advice
MMBT6517LT1G	SOT-23 package (smaller footprint, lower I_C = 500 mA, V_CEO = 30 V)	Not suitable for 1 A loads or 40 V rails; limited thermal mass for sustained conduction.	Select only for space-constrained, lower-power designs where TO-92 mounting is impractical.
BC807-40,215	SOT-23 package, h_FE = 250–600 (much higher gain), I_C = 500 mA, V_CEO = 45 V	Higher gain reduces base drive requirements but limits switching speed due to stored charge; not rated for 1 A continuous.	Prefer for low-base-drive, medium-speed applications; avoid where 1 A continuous current or low V_CE(sat) is critical.

Compared with MMBT6517LT1G and BC807-40,215, the MPS6652RLRAG uniquely balances 1 A continuous current, 40 V V_CEO, low 0.6 V saturation, and TO-92 manufacturability-making it optimal for cost-sensitive, thermally demanding industrial switching where SOT-23 alternatives fall short on current or thermal capability.

FAQ

What is the maximum continuous collector current rating for MPS6652RLRAG?

The MPS6652RLRAG is rated for 1000 mA (1 A) continuous collector current at T_A = 25 °C. Derating applies above 25 °C per the datasheet's 5.0 mW/°C thermal derating curve for ambient operation, or 12 mW/°C for case-mounted thermal management. This rating assumes proper PCB copper area and airflow per onsemi's TO-92 layout guidelines.

Is MPS6652RLRAG a PNP or NPN transistor?

MPS6652RLRAG is a PNP bipolar junction transistor. Its electrical characteristics-including negative voltage and current conventions, V_CEO = −40 V (absolute value 40 V), and emitter-connected high-side configuration-are explicitly defined for PNP operation in the onsemi datasheet. It is functionally complementary to the NPN MPS6601.

What package type does MPS6652RLRAG use, and is it RoHS compliant?

MPS6652RLRAG uses the TO-92 (Case 29-11, Style 17) through-hole package with bent leads and tape-and-reel packaging (RLRA designation). It is Pb-free and RoHS compliant, meeting EU Directive 2011/65/EU, with soldering profiles validated per onsemi's Pb-free reflow guidelines (peak temperature ≤ 260 °C).

What is the typical DC current gain (h_FE) of MPS6652RLRAG at 1 A collector current?

At I_C = 1000 mA and V_CE = 1.0 V, the MPS6652RLRAG guarantees h_FE ≥ 30. The datasheet shows typical h_FE ≈ 40–50 under those conditions, with variation across the −55 °C to +150 °C junction temperature range. This minimum gain ensures predictable base drive requirements in saturated switching applications.

Can MPS6652RLRAG be used in switching applications, and what are its key timing parameters?

Yes, MPS6652RLRAG is qualified for switching use. Key timing parameters at V_CC = −40 V, I_C = −500 mA, and I_B1 = I_B2 = −50 mA include delay time t_d ≤ 25 ns, rise time t_r ≤ 30 ns, storage time t_s ≤ 250 ns, and fall time t_f ≤ 50 ns. These values reflect its suitability for medium-speed digital switching up to ~1–2 MHz repetition rates.
