Product details
Overview
MPS750RLRA from onsemi is a PNP general-purpose amplifier transistor in TO-92 package, rated for VCE = 40 V, IC = 2.0 A continuous, and PD = 625 mW at TA = 25°C. It delivers hFE ≥ 75 at IC = 50 mA and VCE = 2.0 V, with VCE(sat) ≤ 0.5 V at IC = 2.0 A / IB = 200 mA, commonly used in low-voltage linear amplification and switching circuits.
For engineers reviewing the MPS750RLRA datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include its PNP polarity, TO-92 mechanical compatibility, DC current gain stability across −55°C to +150°C, saturation voltage under high-current drive, and Pb-free tape-and-reel packaging for automated assembly.
Technical Context
This device operates as a silicon planar epitaxial PNP bipolar junction transistor optimized for medium-power linear amplification and saturated switching. Its safe operating area (SOA) is defined up to 2.0 A and −40 V with thermal derating of 5.0 mW/°C above 25°C ambient, and second breakdown-limited performance confirmed per Figure 8 of the datasheet.
Electrical behavior is characterized at TC = 25°C and TA = 25°C, with validated parameters including V(BR)CEO = 40 V (IC = 10 mA), V(BR)CBO = 60 V (IC = 100 μA), and fT = 75 MHz (IC = 50 mA, VCE = 5.0 V). Base-emitter on voltage is specified as VBE(on) ≤ 1.0 V at IC = 1.0 A.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCE max | 40 Vdc - Maximum collector-emitter voltage before breakdown; sets upper rail limit in PNP switch or amplifier stages. |
| IC continuous | 2.0 Adc - Continuous collector current rating; supports medium-power load driving without forced cooling. |
| hFE min | 75 at IC = 50 mA - Minimum DC current gain ensures predictable base drive requirements in linear operation. |
| VCE(sat) | ≤ 0.5 V at IC = 2.0 A / IB = 200 mA - Low saturation voltage minimizes power loss and heating in switching applications. |
| PD @ TA | 625 mW at 25°C - Power dissipation limit at ambient; requires thermal derating of 5.0 mW/°C above 25°C. |
| fT | 75 MHz - Transition frequency defines usable bandwidth for small-signal amplification up to ~10–20 MHz. |
Pinout & Package
Package: TO-92 (Case 29-11), straight-lead or bent-lead configuration, Pb-free, epoxy-molded plastic housing with JEDEC-standard dimensions (A = 4.45–5.20 mm, B = 4.32–5.33 mm, C = 3.18–4.19 mm).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (Emitter) | Current source terminal for PNP device | Connected to higher potential rail in common-emitter configurations; determines current flow direction and biasing topology. |
| 2 (Base) | Control input for minority-carrier injection | Receives forward-biased current to modulate collector current; requires external resistor network for stable DC biasing. |
| 3 (Collector) | Current sink terminal | Typically tied to load and ground reference; voltage swing at this node defines output signal polarity and swing range. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Pb-free TO-92 packaging | Complies with RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU and JEDEC J-STD-020 reflow profiles for lead-free assembly. |
| Wide operating temperature | −55°C to +150°C junction range enables use in automotive engine compartments and industrial control enclosures. |
| High fT bandwidth | 75 MHz transition frequency supports audio-frequency amplification and fast-switching digital interface buffering. |
| Low VCE(sat) | 0.5 V maximum at full 2.0 A load ensures <1 W conduction loss in saturated switch mode at 2 A. |
| Validated SOA curve | Second-breakdown-limited safe operating area documented in Figure 8 supports reliable pulsed-current design up to 2.0 A. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar PNP medium-power amplifier transistor applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MPS750G | Same die, TO-92 bulk-packaged (5000 units); no tape-and-reel carrier or orientation control. | Suitable for manual prototyping or low-volume hand-soldered builds; not optimized for SMT pick-and-place. | Select MPS750G for bench validation; MPS750RLRA for production automation requiring consistent lead orientation and reel handling. |
| BC807-40 | Smaller SOT-23 package (IC = 500 mA, VCE = 45 V, hFE = 250–630); lower power, higher gain, surface-mount only. | Limited to sub-amp loads; unsuitable for 2 A switching or linear regulation; requires PCB redesign for footprint and thermal relief. | Choose BC807-40 only when board space is constrained and current demand is ≤ 500 mA; not a drop-in replacement for MPS750RLRA. |
Compared with MPS750G, MPS750RLRA offers verified tape-and-reel compatibility for automated assembly, while BC807-40 trades current capacity and through-hole serviceability for miniaturization and higher hFE, necessitating layout changes and thermal reassessment.

FAQ
What is the maximum collector current rating for MPS750RLRA?
The MPS750RLRA is rated for 2.0 A continuous collector current (IC) at TA = 25°C. This rating assumes adequate PCB copper area for heat dissipation; derating to 1.5 A is recommended at 70°C ambient. The device also supports short-duration pulsed currents up to 2.0 A within its SOA limits, as shown in Figure 8 of the official datasheet.
Is MPS750RLRA compatible with lead-free reflow soldering processes?
Yes, MPS750RLRA is a Pb-free device compliant with JEDEC J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity level (MSL) 1 and qualified for standard lead-free reflow profiles peaking at 260°C. Its epoxy molding compound and lead finish meet RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU requirements, making it suitable for automated SMT assembly without post-process cleaning.
What is the pin configuration of MPS750RLRA in TO-92 package?
MPS750RLRA uses standard TO-92 pinout: Pin 1 = Emitter, Pin 2 = Base, Pin 3 = Collector (viewed with flat side facing outward and leads pointing down). This matches the marking diagram on page 1 of the MPS650/D datasheet and is consistent across all MPS75x variants in bent-lead or straight-lead tape-and-reel formats.
How does the DC current gain (hFE) of MPS750RLRA vary with temperature?
MPS750RLRA maintains hFE ≥ 75 at IC = 50 mA and VCE = 2.0 V across its full operating junction temperature range of −55°C to +150°C, as confirmed by Figure 2 in the datasheet. Gain decreases gradually at extremes: ~100 at −55°C, ~75 at 25°C, and ~60 at 125°C, supporting stable biasing in wide-temperature environments.
Can MPS750RLRA be used as a direct replacement for MPS750G?
Yes, MPS750RLRA shares identical electrical specifications, die, and TO-92 package with MPS750G; the only difference is packaging format - MPS750RLRA is supplied in 2000-unit tape-and-reel with controlled lead orientation, whereas MPS750G is bulk-packed. No circuit or layout changes are required when substituting MPS750RLRA for MPS750G in production.
