Product details
Overview
PBRP113ET-QR from Nexperia is a PNP resistor-equipped transistor (RET) in SOT23 package, designed for automotive-grade switching with −40 V VCEO, −600 mA IO, built-in 1 kΩ R1 and 1 kΩ R2 bias resistors, and AEC-Q101 qualification. It functions as a medium-current load switch in digital control paths of body electronics and power management modules.
For engineers reviewing the PBRP113ET-QR datasheet, PBRP113ET-QR pinout, PBRP113ET-QR application, or PBRP113ET-QR equivalent, key selection criteria include verified VCEsat ≤ 750 mV at −600 mA, ±10% R2/R1 ratio tolerance, thermal resistance Rth(j-sp) = 105 K/W, and automotive-compliant transient robustness per AEC-Q101.
Technical Context
This PNP RET integrates two precision bias resistors (R1 = 1 kΩ, R2 = 1 kΩ) to eliminate external base drive components, enabling direct logic-level interfacing with microcontrollers. Its low −VCEsat (typ. 130 mV at −50 mA; 450 mV at −600 mA) minimizes conduction loss in high-duty-cycle switching.
The device operates across −55 °C to +150 °C ambient, with junction temperature limited to 150 °C and qualified per AEC-Q101 stress tests including HTGB, HTRB, and ESD (HBM ≥ 8 kV). Thermal performance is defined for FR4 PCB mounting with 1 cm² collector pad (Rth(j-sp) = 105 K/W).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCEO | −40 V - Maximum safe collector-emitter voltage under open-base condition; defines blocking capability in automotive 12 V/24 V systems. |
| IO | −600 mA - Continuous DC output current rating; supports medium-power loads like LED arrays or small solenoids. |
| VCEsat | −450 to −750 mV @ −600 mA/−6 mA - Confirmed saturation voltage range; enables <1.5 W dissipation at full load with proper PCB copper area. |
| R1 / R2 | 1 kΩ / 1 kΩ - Integrated base bias network; eliminates 2 external resistors and reduces BOM count and placement cost. |
| R2/R1 Tolerance | ±10 % - Tight ratio control ensures consistent turn-on threshold and gain stability across temperature and process variation. |
| AEC-Q101 Qualified | Yes - Validated for automotive use per stress test requirements; supports PPAP documentation and long-term reliability in harsh environments. |
| Ptot | 370 mW @ Tamb ≤ 25 °C - Total power dissipation limit on standard FR4 PCB; derates linearly above 25 °C per Fig. 1. |
Pinout & Package
SOT23 (TO-236AB) plastic surface-mount package: 3-terminal, 1.9 mm pitch, 2.9 mm × 1.3 mm × 1.0 mm body, tin-plated terminations, compatible with reflow and wave soldering per Figures 12–13.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Input (base) | Connected internally to R1 and R2 node; accepts logic-level drive (VI(on) = −1.0 to −1.8 V); no external base resistor required. |
| 2 | GND (emitter) | Emitter terminal tied to system ground; serves as common reference for input and output; must be low-impedance for stable switching. |
| 3 | O (collector) | High-side switched output; connects to load anode (for PNP configuration); handles up to −600 mA continuous current. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Integrated bias network | Eliminates 2 discrete resistors and associated layout space; reduces pick-and-place cycle time by one component. |
| Low VCEsat | Typ. −130 mV at −50 mA enables >98 % efficiency in 5 V logic-driven loads; critical for thermally constrained ECUs. |
| High hFE | 140–210 @ −600 mA/−6 mA ensures reliable saturation with minimal base drive current, easing MCU GPIO loading. |
| AEC-Q101 qualification | Validated for automotive underhood and cabin applications; includes HTGB, HTRB, and temperature cycling per standard. |
| Thermal resistance Rth(j-sp) | 105 K/W to solder point enables predictable junction temperature estimation using board-level thermal modeling. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar PNP RET switching applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ON Semiconductor NSS12201LT1G | R1 = 10 kΩ, R2 = 10 kΩ; VCEO = −50 V; IO = −200 mA; no AEC-Q101 qualification | Lower current capability and no automotive qualification; suitable only for non-safety-critical consumer designs | Select when lower cost and higher VCEO margin outweigh current and qualification needs |
| ROHM DTA114YKAT146 | R1 = 10 kΩ, R2 = 47 kΩ; VCEO = −50 V; IO = −100 mA; AEC-Q101 qualified | Higher R2/R1 ratio yields lower hFE sensitivity but reduced drive current; rated for only −100 mA | Choose for logic-level compatibility where lower load current suffices and tighter gain control is needed |
Compared with NSS12201LT1G and DTA114YKAT146, PBRP113ET-QR delivers 3× higher output current, matched 1:1 bias resistors for predictable gain, and AEC-Q101 validation-making it uniquely suited for automotive 600 mA switching nodes requiring thermal and reliability assurance.

FAQ
What is the maximum pulsed output current rating for PBRP113ET-QR?
The repetitive peak output current IORM is −800 mA under conditions of pulse width ≤ 1 ms and duty cycle δ ≤ 0.33. This rating applies with proper PCB thermal design (FR4, 35 µm Cu, 1 cm² collector pad) and is validated per IEC 60134 limiting values. It supports short-duration surge loads such as relay coil energization or motor startup peaks.
Does PBRP113ET-QR require an external pull-down resistor on the input pin?
No external pull-down is required. Pin 1 (input) connects internally to R1 and R2; the device exhibits defined VI(off) behavior (−0.6 to −1.5 V) that ensures reliable turn-off without external biasing. This eliminates risk of floating input states and simplifies MCU GPIO interface design in automotive modules.
How does the R2/R1 ratio affect switching performance?
The R2/R1 ratio of 1.0 ± 0.1 directly sets base current division and influences hFE utilization and saturation depth. A precise 1:1 ratio ensures optimal trade-off between turn-on speed and VCEsat, delivering consistent −450 mV typical saturation at −600 mA while maintaining noise immunity against supply ripple.
Can PBRP113ET-QR be used in parallel configurations for higher current?
Parallel operation is not recommended due to mismatch in VCEsat and hFE across units, which causes current imbalance and thermal runaway. The device is characterized and qualified as a single-switch solution; for >600 mA, Nexperia recommends using the PBRP123ET-Q (1 A variant) or discrete BJT solutions with emitter ballasting.
