Product details
Overview
PDTA143XK,115 from Nexperia is a PNP resistor-equipped transistor (RET) in SOT23 surface-mount package, designed for digital switching applications with built-in bias resistors R1 = 4.7 kΩ and R2 = 10 kΩ, −50 V collector-emitter voltage rating, −100 mA output current capability, and AEC-Q101 qualification for automotive use.
For engineers reviewing the PDTA143XK,115 datasheet, PDTA143XK,115 pinout, PDTA143XK,115 application, or PDTA143XK,115 equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical parameters, thermal derating curves, pin-level circuit roles, automotive-grade reliability data, and direct alternatives for load switching and IC input control in space-constrained designs.
Technical Context
This PNP RET integrates two precision bias resistors (R1 = 4.7 kΩ, R2/R1 = 2.1 typ.) to eliminate external base components, enabling single-pin drive logic-level signals. Its −50 V VCEO and −7 V VEBO ratings support robust operation in 12 V/24 V automotive power domains.
The device exhibits −100 mV VCEsat at IC = −10 mA / IB = −0.5 mA, hFE ≥ 50 at VCE = −5 V / IC = −10 mA, and fT = 180 MHz - confirming suitability for high-speed digital switching up to several MHz while maintaining low saturation loss and stable gain across −40 °C to +150 °C junction temperature range.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCEO | −50 V: Maximum safe collector-emitter voltage under open-base condition; enables use in 24 V automotive systems with margin. |
| IO | −100 mA: Continuous DC output current capability; supports driving moderate loads like LEDs, relays, or logic inputs. |
| R1 | 4.7 kΩ ±27%: Integrated input bias resistor; eliminates need for external pull-up/pull-down, reducing BOM count and layout area. |
| VCEsat | ≤ −100 mV at IC = −10 mA / IB = −0.5 mA: Low saturation voltage minimizes power loss and heat generation during on-state operation. |
| hFE | ≥ 50 at VCE = −5 V / IC = −10 mA: Sufficient DC current gain ensures reliable turn-on with standard logic-level drive signals. |
| fT | 180 MHz: Transition frequency confirms fast switching performance suitable for digital signal routing and pulse-width modulation. |
| VI(on) | −2.5 V to −1.5 V at VCE = −0.3 V / IC = −20 mA: Validated on-threshold input voltage range compatible with 3.3 V and 5 V CMOS/TTL logic families. |
Pinout & Package
SOT23 plastic surface-mounted package (JEDEC TO-236AB), 3-lead, body size 2.9 mm × 1.3 mm × 1.0 mm; optimized for reflow soldering only.
| Pin | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | input (base) | Terminates internal R1–R2 bias network; accepts logic-level drive without external resistor; polarity matches PNP switching topology. |
| 2 | GND (emitter) | Emitter tied to system ground reference; serves as common return path for load current and bias network. |
| 3 | output (collector) | Switched high-side output node; connects to load (e.g., LED anode or relay coil); sinks current when active. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Integrated R1/R2 bias network | Eliminates 2 external resistors per switch, reducing PCB area by ~1.5 mm² and eliminating placement errors in automated assembly. |
| AEC-Q101 qualification | Validated for automotive under-hood and infotainment applications per stress test requirements including HTOL, TC, and ESD-HBM ≥ 2 kV. |
| −100 mV VCEsat | Reduces conduction loss to <0.5 mW at 5 mA load, enabling thermally efficient operation in sealed enclosures without heatsinking. |
| 180 MHz fT | Supports clean edge transitions in PWM-driven loads up to 100 kHz with minimal rise/fall time degradation. |
| −50 V VCEO rating | Provides 2× safety margin over 24 V nominal vehicle battery systems, accommodating load-dump transients per ISO 7637-2. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar PNP digital switching applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| PDTC143XT,115 | NPN complement with identical R1/R2 values, SOT23 package, same footprint but opposite polarity. | Requires inverted logic drive and low-side load configuration instead of high-side switching. | Select when load must be grounded and controller output can sink current. |
| BC857B,215 | Standard PNP BJT without integrated resistors; requires two external bias resistors; same SOT23 package. | Higher BOM count and layout complexity; less immune to trace parasitics due to external R network. | Choose only if adjustable bias ratio or higher hFE (>200) is required beyond PDTA143XK,115's fixed architecture. |
Compared with PDTC143XT,115 and BC857B,215, PDTA143XK,115 provides polarity-matched high-side switching with zero external components, delivering faster time-to-schematic completion, reduced PCB real estate, and guaranteed bias stability across temperature - critical for automotive and industrial production programs where validation overhead must be minimized.

FAQ
What is the package type and footprint compatibility of PDTA143XK,115?
PDTA143XK,115 uses the SOT23 (TO-236AB) package with standardized 2.9 mm × 1.3 mm body dimensions and 0.95 mm lead pitch. It shares footprint and soldering profile with industry-standard SOT23 discrete transistors and logic devices, enabling drop-in replacement in existing layouts without redesign. Reflow soldering is the only recommended assembly method per Nexperia's specification.
Does PDTA143XK,115 require external bias resistors for basic switching operation?
No, PDTA143XK,115 does not require external bias resistors. It integrates R1 = 4.7 kΩ and R2 = 10 kΩ internally, forming a complete PNP digital switch with single-pin logic-level drive capability. This eliminates two passive components per channel, reduces PCB area, and removes sensitivity to trace resistance and parasitic capacitance in high-density layouts.
Is PDTA143XK,115 qualified for automotive applications?
Yes, PDTA143XK,115 is AEC-Q101 qualified for discrete semiconductors. It has passed stress tests including high-temperature operating life (HTOL), temperature cycling (TC), and human-body model ESD (HBM ≥ 2 kV), making it suitable for under-hood and cabin electronics in passenger vehicles and commercial vehicles per ISO/TS 16949 requirements.
What is the maximum continuous output current rating for PDTA143XK,115?
The maximum continuous output current (IO) for PDTA143XK,115 is −100 mA at Tamb ≤ 25 °C. Derating applies above 25 °C ambient: total power dissipation drops linearly to zero at 150 °C junction temperature, with Rth(j-a) = 500 K/W for the SOT23 package. At 85 °C ambient, usable IO is approximately −65 mA under free-air conditions.
How does the VI(on) and VI(off) behavior of PDTA143XK,115 support noise immunity in industrial environments?
PDTA143XK,115 specifies VI(on) = −2.5 V to −1.5 V and VI(off) = −0.9 V to −0.3 V, establishing a ≥1.2 V guaranteed hysteresis window. This ensures reliable switching even with ±100 mV of supply rail noise or EMI-induced fluctuations on the input line - a key advantage over standard BJTs in electrically noisy PLC cabinets or motor drive zones.
