Product details
Overview
PDTA143TS from Nexperia is a PNP resistor-equipped transistor in TO-92 (SOT54) package, featuring integrated 4.7 kΩ base bias resistor (R1), open R2 configuration, −50 V VCEO rating, −100 mA DC output current, and 500 mW power dissipation at Tamb ≤ 25 °C. It serves as a simplified switching element in low-voltage interface circuits requiring minimal external components.
For engineers reviewing the PDTA143TS datasheet, PDTA143TS pinout, PDTA143TS application, or PDTA143TS equivalent, key selection criteria include its built-in bias network, TO-92 through-hole compatibility, −50 V collector-emitter blocking capability, −100 mA saturation current handling, and thermal resistance of 250 K/W in free air - critical for reliable operation in space-constrained industrial control and consumer logic interfaces.
Technical Context
This device implements a monolithic PNP bipolar junction transistor with a single integrated 4.7 kΩ base-emitter pull-up resistor (R1) and no second resistor (R2 = open), enabling direct digital logic-level drive without external biasing. Its −5 V VEBO rating and −1 μA ICEO at 25 °C support stable cutoff in low-power standby states.
The SOT54 (TO-92) package provides mechanical robustness and through-hole mounting compatibility, with thermal resistance of 250 K/W enabling operation up to 150 °C junction temperature under defined ambient conditions. DC current gain (hFE) ≥ 200 at −1 mA IC ensures predictable switching thresholds across production lots.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCEO | −50 V: Maximum safe collector-emitter voltage before breakdown; enables use in 24 V and 36 V industrial supply rails. |
| IO (DC) | −100 mA: Continuous collector current capability; supports driving LEDs, relays, or small solenoids directly. |
| R1 | 4.7 kΩ ±26% (3.3–6.1 kΩ): Integrated base bias resistor reduces component count and PCB area in simple switch designs. |
| Ptot | 500 mW at Tamb ≤ 25 °C: Power dissipation limit in TO-92 package; requires derating above 25 °C ambient per thermal curve. |
| hFE | ≥200 at VCE = −5 V, IC = −1 mA: Ensures sufficient current amplification for reliable logic-level input drive. |
| VCEsat | ≤ −150 mV at IC = −5 mA, IB = −0.25 mA: Low saturation voltage minimizes power loss and heating during on-state operation. |
Pinout & Package
Package: SOT54 (TO-92), plastic single-ended leaded through-hole package with 3 leads; body dimensions 4.8 × 4.2 × 14.5 mm (D × E × L).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Base | Input terminal connected internally to R1; accepts TTL/CMOS logic-level signals for direct switching control. |
| 2 | Collector | High-side switching node; connects to load supply rail when used in common-emitter configuration. |
| 3 | Emitter | Ground reference terminal; tied to system GND or low-side return path in standard switching layouts. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Built-in R1 bias resistor | Eliminates need for external base resistor, reducing BOM count and layout complexity in discrete switch designs. |
| R2 = open configuration | Provides unidirectional biasing suitable for simple on/off control without emitter feedback or active pull-down. |
| −50 V VCEO rating | Supports operation in 24 V and 36 V industrial systems with margin for transient spikes and inductive kickback. |
| TO-92 mechanical robustness | Enables reliable through-hole assembly and manual rework in prototyping, repair, and low-volume manufacturing. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar PNP resistor-equipped transistor applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| PDTC143TS | NPN complement with identical R1 value and SOT54 package; opposite polarity switching behavior. | Requires inverted logic drive and reversed load connection; unsuitable where PNP sourcing action is mandatory. | Select PDTC143TS only when NPN topology aligns with system-level signal polarity and grounding architecture. |
| NSV143TST1G | ON Semiconductor PNP RET with same R1 (4.7 kΩ), but SOT-23 surface-mount package and lower Ptot (250 mW). | Limited to SMT assembly and lower power loads; not compatible with through-hole PCBs or >250 mW continuous dissipation. | Choose NSV143TST1G only for space-constrained SMT designs where TO-92 footprint is unavailable and thermal budget permits. |
Compared with PDTC143TS and NSV143TST1G, the PDTA143TS uniquely combines PNP polarity, TO-92 through-hole mountability, 500 mW power handling, and −50 V blocking in a single cost-optimized discrete solution - making it preferred for legacy-compatible, serviceable, and thermally demanding industrial interfaces.

FAQ
What is the pin configuration of the PDTA143TS?
Pin 1 is Base, Pin 2 is Collector, and Pin 3 is Emitter - confirmed in the official Nexperia datasheet for the PDTA143TS. This TO-92 (SOT54) pinout enables direct replacement in legacy PNP switch layouts and supports common-emitter switching topologies without board redesign.
Does the PDTA143TS have an internal pull-down resistor (R2)?
No, the PDTA143TS has R2 = open per its datasheet specification, meaning only R1 (4.7 kΩ) is integrated between base and emitter. This configuration provides unidirectional biasing ideal for simple on/off control without emitter feedback, distinguishing it from dual-resistor RET variants.
What is the maximum power dissipation of the PDTA143TS?
The PDTA143TS has a total power dissipation (Ptot) of 500 mW at Tamb ≤ 25 °C in its SOT54 package. Derating is required above 25 °C ambient per the thermal resistance of 250 K/W, with absolute maximum junction temperature limited to 150 °C.
Can the PDTA143TS replace standard discrete PNP transistors like BC807?
The PDTA143TS can replace BC807 in many switching applications due to matching VCEO (−50 V), IO (−100 mA), and TO-92 packaging - but only when the design accommodates its integrated 4.7 kΩ base resistor. External base resistors must be removed to avoid double-biasing, and hFE ≥ 200 ensures adequate drive margin.
Is the PDTA143TS RoHS compliant and halogen-free?
Yes, the PDTA143TS is RoHS compliant and halogen-free per Nexperia's product compliance documentation. It meets EU Directive 2011/65/EU and IEC 61249-2-21:2013 standards, with material declarations available through Nexperia's official product portal.
