Product details
Overview
NSS40200UW6T1G from onsemi is a PNP bipolar junction transistor rated for −40 V VCEO, −2.0 A continuous collector current, and ultra-low −0.020 V typical VCE(sat) at −2.0 A/−0.020 A drive, designed for high-efficiency low-voltage switching in portable power management circuits.
For engineers reviewing the NSS40200UW6T1G datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include verified −40 V breakdown rating, WDFN6 package thermal performance (RJA = 85 °C/W with 500 mm² copper), linear hFE stability across −10 mA to −2.0 A, and AEC-Q101 qualification for automotive instrument cluster use.
Technical Context
This device operates as a low-saturation-voltage PNP switch optimized for DC–DC converter output stages and PMU-driven load control. Its fixed linear hFE of 150 across four decades of collector current (−10 mA to −2.0 A) enables predictable base drive design without gain compensation.
Thermal performance is defined under two PCB conditions: 100 mm² FR-4 yields 875 mW dissipation (RJA = 143 °C/W), while 500 mm² FR-4 supports 1.5 W (RJA = 85 °C/W) - critical for sustained high-current operation in compact battery-powered systems.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCEO | −40 V - supports full rail-to-rail switching in 3.3 V, 5 V, and 12 V battery systems with margin against transients. |
| IC (continuous) | −2.0 A - delivers sufficient current for motor drivers and high-brightness LED loads in portable electronics. |
| VCE(sat) (typ.) | −0.020 V at −2.0 A/−0.020 A - reduces conduction loss to <20 mW, enabling >99% efficiency in synchronous rectifier-like configurations. |
| hFE | 150 (min) across −10 mA to −2.0 A - eliminates need for base current scaling circuitry in wide-dynamic-range analog amplifiers or PWM drivers. |
| fT | 140 MHz - ensures stable operation up to 10–20 MHz switching frequencies in high-frequency DC–DC converters. |
| RJA (500 mm²) | 85 °C/W - allows 1.5 W continuous dissipation at TA = 85 °C, supporting industrial ambient operation without forced cooling. |
Pinout & Package
Package: WDFN6 (Case 506AP), 2.0 × 2.0 mm body, 0.65 mm pitch, exposed thermal pad (pins 1, 2, 5, 6 tied to collector flag; pin 4 emitter; pin 3 base).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 2, 5, 6 | Collector | Internally connected to exposed metal flag - primary heat path to PCB; must be soldered to thermal pad for rated RJA = 85 °C/W. |
| 3 | Base | Control input requiring −0.020 A drive at −2.0 A load; VBE(sat) = −0.76 V typ. simplifies level-shifting from 3.3 V logic. |
| 4 | Emitter | Common reference node for load-side switching; polarity reversal enables high-side configuration in buck regulators. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultra-low VCE(sat) | −0.020 V typical at −2.0 A enables <20 mW conduction loss - critical for extending battery life in portable devices. |
| AEC-Q101 qualified | Validated for automotive instrument clusters and airbag deployment circuits per stress test requirements. |
| Linear hFE over 4 decades | 150 min from −10 mA to −2.0 A eliminates gain-dependent base resistor recalibration in multi-load systems. |
| WDFN6 thermal pad | Exposed collector flag provides direct thermal path to PCB - achieves 1.5 W dissipation with standard 500 mm² copper area. |
Applications
| DC–DC Converter Output Stage | Automotive Instrument Cluster |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: High-efficiency synchronous rectification in 3.3 V/5 V buck converters powering SoCs in smartphones and tablets.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar PNP low VCE(sat) transistor applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ZXTN2010ZTA | −20 V VCEO, −3.0 A IC, −0.12 V VCE(sat) @ −2 A - lower voltage rating, higher saturation voltage. | Suitable only for ≤20 V systems; not qualified for automotive temperature range. | Select when cost sensitivity outweighs voltage margin and thermal performance requirements. |
| DMT3005LPS-7 | −30 V VCEO, −3.5 A IC, −0.15 V VCE(sat) @ −2 A - MOSFET-based, requires gate drive, no hFE linearity. | Requires level-shifting gate driver; unsuitable for analog amplifier use due to nonlinear transfer characteristics. | Choose only when gate-controlled switching is preferred and base-drive simplicity is not required. |
Compared with ZXTN2010ZTA and DMT3005LPS-7, NSS40200UW6T1G uniquely combines −40 V rating, −0.020 V VCE(sat), AEC-Q101 qualification, and linear hFE - making it the sole option for automotive-grade, high-efficiency, analog-compatible PNP switching in space-constrained 3.3–12 V systems.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous collector current rating for NSS40200UW6T1G?
The NSS40200UW6T1G is rated for −2.0 A continuous collector current at TA = 25 °C with 500 mm² PCB copper area. Derating applies above 25 °C at 11.8 mW/°C, maintaining safe operation up to +85 °C ambient with proper thermal layout. This rating is confirmed in the "Maximum Ratings" table on page 2 of the official onsemi datasheet (Publication Order Number: NSS40200UW6/D, Rev. 3, April 2024).
Is NSS40200UW6T1G qualified for automotive applications?
Yes, NSS40200UW6T1G is AEC-Q101 qualified and PPAP capable, as explicitly stated in the "Features" section of the onsemi datasheet. It is approved for use in automotive instrument clusters and airbag deployment systems, operating reliably across −55 °C to +150 °C junction temperature range with validated stress testing per automotive reliability standards.
What is the typical VCE(sat) of NSS40200UW6T1G at full rated current?
The typical VCE(sat) of NSS40200UW6T1G is −0.020 V at −2.0 A collector current and −0.020 A base current, per the "Electrical Characteristics" table on page 3 of the datasheet. This ultra-low saturation voltage is guaranteed by design and verified through characterization - enabling sub-20 mW conduction loss in high-current switching applications.
Which package does NSS40200UW6T1G use, and how is thermal performance specified?
NSS40200UW6T1G uses the WDFN6 package (Case 506AP), 2.0 × 2.0 mm with 0.65 mm pitch and an exposed collector thermal pad. Thermal resistance is specified as RJA = 85 °C/W with 500 mm² FR-4 copper (page 2), supporting 1.5 W continuous dissipation - a key differentiator versus standard SOT-23 alternatives limited to ~0.5 W.
Does NSS40200UW6T1G have linear current gain across its operating range?
Yes, NSS40200UW6T1G maintains a minimum hFE of 150 across four decades of collector current (−10 mA to −2.0 A) at VCE = −2.0 V, as shown in the "Electrical Characteristics" table (page 3) and Figure 3. This linear gain behavior eliminates gain-dependent base resistor recalibration and supports consistent analog amplifier and precision switching performance.
