Product details
Overview
PBSS5140V,115 from Nexperia is a 40 V PNP low VCE(sat) transistor in SOT666 package, rated for −1 A DC collector current and −300 mW power dissipation at 25 °C ambient, with typical VCE(sat) of −120 mV at IC = −500 mA / IB = −50 mA, used for supply line switching and LCD back lighting in battery-powered handheld devices.
For engineers reviewing the PBSS5140V,115 datasheet, PBSS5140V,115 pinout, PBSS5140V,115 application, or PBSS5140V,115 equivalent, key selection criteria include verified low saturation voltage, ultra-thin SOT666 footprint compatibility, thermal resistance under standard PCB mounting, and confirmed PNP polarity with four collector terminals.
Technical Context
The PBSS5140V,115 is a discrete PNP bipolar junction transistor optimized for low-loss switching in space-constrained portable electronics. Its SOT666 package integrates four parallel collector leads to reduce effective on-resistance and improve thermal conduction, while maintaining flat, straight leads for self-alignment during reflow soldering.
It delivers RCE(sat) < 340 mΩ at IC = −500 mA / IB = −50 mA, with VCE(sat) as low as −120 mV (typ), enabling efficient operation in high-current, low-voltage rail switching. Its fT of 150 MHz supports fast turn-off in PWM-driven backlight circuits.

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| PBSS5240V,115 | Higher VCEO (−60 V), same SOT666 package and pinout, RCE(sat) < 400 mΩ | Better suited for 5–12 V industrial supply rails where higher blocking voltage is required | Select when system voltage exceeds 40 V or transient immunity >40 V is needed |
| DMT3005LFG-7 | PNP MOSFET (not BJT); VGS(th) = −1.2 V, RDS(on) = 280 mΩ @ VGS = −4.5 V | Lower gate drive current demand but requires negative gate bias; no DC current gain dependency | Choose for ultra-low quiescent base/gate current or when driving from logic-level controllers |
Compared with PBSS5240V,115 and DMT3005LFG-7, the PBSS5140V,115 offers optimal balance of low saturation voltage, proven BJT drive simplicity, and ultra-thin SOT666 fit for sub-6 mm Z-height mobile designs-without requiring gate bias translation or derating for 60 V systems.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous collector current rating for PBSS5140V,115?
The PBSS5140V,115 has a maximum DC collector current rating of −1 A, specified under Tamb ≤ 25 °C with standard PCB mounting (single-side copper, tinplated). At higher ambient temperatures or with reduced copper area, derating applies per its thermal resistance of 410 K/W.
Does PBSS5140V,115 support reflow soldering only, or can it be hand-soldered?
The PBSS5140V,115 datasheet specifies reflow soldering as the only recommended process due to its ultra-thin SOT666 package and thermal sensitivity. Hand-soldering is not advised, as localized overheating may exceed the 150 °C maximum junction temperature or damage the fine-pitch leads.
How many collector terminals does PBSS5140V,115 have, and why are they used?
The PBSS5140V,115 has four collector terminals (pins 1, 2, 5, and 6), all internally connected. This multi-terminal design lowers effective on-resistance and improves thermal spreading across the PCB, directly supporting its <340 mΩ RCE(sat) and enhanced power dissipation capability in compact layouts.
What is the typical VCE(sat) of PBSS5140V,115 at 500 mA collector current?
At IC = −500 mA and IB = −50 mA, the PBSS5140V,115 delivers a typical VCE(sat) of −120 mV, with a maximum of −170 mV. This value is measured at Tamb = 25 °C and confirms its suitability for low-loss switching in portable power rails.
Is PBSS5140V,115 pin-compatible with its NPN complement PBSS4140V,115?
Yes - the PBSS5140V,115 and PBSS4140V,115 share identical SOT666 packaging and pinout (1–2–3–4–6–5 top view), enabling symmetrical board layout for complementary switching stages. However, polarity reversal means base drive and biasing must be adapted accordingly.
