Product details
Overview
PDTC114EE from Nexperia is an NPN resistor-equipped transistor (RET) in SOT416 (SC-75) package, designed for digital switching with built-in 10 kΩ input and feedback bias resistors, 50 V VCEO, 100 mA output current, and AEC-Q101 qualification for automotive use.
For engineers reviewing the PDTC114EE datasheet, PDTC114EE pinout, PDTC114EE application, or PDTC114EE equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical parameters, thermal derating behavior, pin-level circuit role mapping, and direct alternatives for cost-sensitive digital interface and load-switching designs.
Technical Context
The PDTC114EE integrates a monolithic NPN transistor with two precision silicon-based bias resistors (R1 = 10 kΩ, R2/R1 = 1.0 typ) to form a single-input, ground-emitter switch topology. Its internal structure eliminates external base resistors while maintaining predictable VI(on)/VI(off) thresholds across temperature.
It operates as a saturated switch with VCE(sat) ≤ 150 mV at IC = 10 mA / IB = 0.5 mA and supports digital logic-level drive (VI(on) = 1.8 V typ at IC = 10 mA), enabling direct interfacing with 3.3 V and 5 V microcontrollers without level-shifting.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCEO | 50 V - Maximum collector-emitter voltage before breakdown; enables use in 24 V automotive and industrial control rails. |
| IO | 100 mA - Continuous output current capability; sufficient for driving LEDs, small relays, and logic inputs. |
| R1 | 10 kΩ (7–13 kΩ) - Input bias resistor value; sets base current for predictable turn-on with standard logic outputs. |
| R2/R1 | 1.0 (0.8–1.2) - Matched feedback-to-input resistor ratio; ensures stable saturation and prevents unintended conduction during noise transients. |
| VCE(sat) | ≤150 mV at IC = 10 mA - Low saturation voltage minimizes power loss and self-heating in high-duty-cycle switching. |
| hFE | ≥30 at VCE = 5 V, IC = 5 mA - Minimum DC current gain guarantees reliable forced-beta operation under defined bias conditions. |
| fT | 230 MHz - Transition frequency of the embedded transistor; supports fast edge response in pulse-width modulation applications. |
Pinout & Package
SOT416 (SC-75) ultra-small surface-mount plastic package: 1.8 mm × 0.9 mm × 0.5 mm body, 3-lead configuration, optimized for high-density PCB layouts and reflow soldering only.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | input (base) | Single logic-level input node connected internally to R1; accepts 0–40 V positive drive signals. |
| 2 | GND (emitter) | Emitter tied directly to PCB ground plane; serves as common reference for both input and output paths. |
| 3 | output (collector) | Switched output node capable of sinking up to 100 mA; connects to load between VCC and collector. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Built-in bias resistors | Eliminates need for two external SMT resistors, reducing BOM count and placement cost in high-volume digital interface circuits. |
| AEC-Q101 qualification | Validated for automotive-grade reliability including temperature cycling, humidity, and mechanical shock per AEC stress test standards. |
| Ultra-small SOT416 footprint | 0.9 mm × 1.8 mm outline saves >60% board area vs. SOT23, critical for space-constrained modules like sensor nodes and ECUs. |
| Low VCE(sat) at 100 mA | Enables efficient switching of moderate-current loads without heatsinking, supporting continuous operation at ambient temperatures up to +125 °C. |
| VI(on)/VI(off) threshold separation | Guaranteed 1.1 V min difference between on-state (2.5 V min) and off-state (0.8 V max) input voltages ensures noise immunity in electrically noisy environments. |
Applications
| Automotive LED Lighting Control | Industrial PLC Digital Input Buffer |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar NPN resistor-equipped transistor applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| PDTC114ET | SOT23 package (3.0 mm × 1.4 mm); higher Ptot = 250 mW; same R1/R2 values and electrical specs. | Better thermal performance in higher-power or less ventilated enclosures; requires larger PCB footprint. | Select when board layout allows SOT23 and thermal margin is constrained by ambient temperature or duty cycle. |
| BC847B,115 | Standard NPN BJT (no integrated resistors); requires external base resistor network; hFE = 200–450; VCEO = 45 V. | Greater design flexibility but increases component count, layout complexity, and sensitivity to stray capacitance. | Choose only if precise hFE control or variable biasing is required; otherwise PDTC114EE offers superior integration and noise immunity. |
Compared with PDTC114ET, the PDTC114EE trades 100 mW lower power dissipation for 65% smaller footprint; compared with BC847B,115, it replaces two passives with guaranteed resistor matching and tighter VI(on)/VI(off) thresholds-reducing validation effort in automotive and industrial digital interfaces.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating temperature for PDTC114EE?
The PDTC114EE has a junction temperature limit of 150 °C and an ambient operating range of −65 °C to +150 °C. Its thermal resistance Rth(j-a) is 830 K/W in free air on FR4 PCB, so sustained 100 mA operation requires careful attention to PCB copper area and airflow. Derating begins above 25 °C ambient per Figure 1 in the datasheet.
Does PDTC114EE support 5 V logic-level drive?
Yes, PDTC114EE supports 5 V logic-level drive: VI(on) is specified at 1.8 V (typ) to 2.5 V (min) at IC = 10 mA, ensuring full saturation with standard 5 V TTL/CMOS outputs. Its VI(off) ≤ 0.8 V also guarantees reliable turn-off with 5 V logic high states.
Is PDTC114EE pin-compatible with other PDTC114x variants?
Yes, all PDTC114x variants-including PDTC114EE, PDTC114ET, PDTC114EU, and PDTC114EM-share identical 3-pin pinout (input/base, GND/emitter, output/collector) and functional behavior. Only the package dimensions and thermal ratings differ; no PCB redesign is needed when migrating between them.
Can PDTC114EE replace BC847 in existing designs?
PDTC114EE can replace BC847 in digital switching roles, but not as a drop-in substitute: it integrates R1 and R2, eliminating external base resistors. Layout must remove those resistors and route the BC847's base node directly to PDTC114EE Pin 1. Electrical behavior improves due to matched internal resistors and tighter VI thresholds.
What is the marking code for PDTC114EE?
The marking code for PDTC114EE is "09", laser-etched on the top surface of the SOT416 package. This code is standardized per Table 5 in the Nexperia datasheet and is used for traceability and visual identification during automated optical inspection (AOI) and manual verification.
