Nexperia USA Inc. PHPT610030NPKX

Overview

PHPT610030NPK from Nexperia is an AEC-Q101-qualified NPN/PNP high-power double bipolar transistor in LFPAK56D (SOT1205) package, delivering 3 A collector current per transistor, 100 V V_CEO, and R_CEsat as low as 75 mΩ (NPN) / 110 mΩ (PNP) at rated current - deployed in automotive motor control and linear-mode voltage regulation where dual-polarity switching and thermal robustness are critical.

For engineers reviewing the PHPT610030NPK datasheet, PHPT610030NPK pinout, PHPT610030NPK application, or PHPT610030NPK equivalent, this device supports high-temperature operation up to 175 °C, offers dual-transistor integration in a single SMD footprint, and provides verified thermal resistance down to 6 K/W (junction-to-solder point), enabling compact, high-reliability power stage designs without discrete thermal management overhead.

Technical Context

This dual bipolar transistor integrates one NPN and one PNP die in a shared LFPAK56D thermally enhanced plastic package, with electrically isolated collectors and separate emitter/base terminals for independent control. Each transistor operates with identical absolute maximum ratings: 100 V V_CEO, 3 A I_C, and 175 °C T_j, supporting complementary switching in H-bridge and load-switch topologies.

The device uses optimized BISS (Bipolar Integrated Schottky) process technology to achieve low saturation resistance and fast switching: t_on = 320 ns (NPN), t_off = 1300 ns (NPN), t_off = 570 ns (PNP), with f_T of 140 MHz (NPN) and 125 MHz (PNP), enabling efficient operation in both linear and switched-mode applications up to several hundred kHz.

Key Specifications

Pinout & Package

PHPT610030NPK is housed in the LFPAK56D (SOT1205) surface-mount package - an 8-lead, single-ended power plastic outline with dual exposed copper pads for thermal and electrical connection of collectors C1 and C2. The package measures 4.7 × 3.5 mm with 1.05 mm height and features optimized solder land geometry per Figure 25 for reflow reliability.

FAQ

What is the maximum continuous collector current rating for each transistor in PHPT610030NPK?

The NPN transistor (TR1) is rated for 3 A continuous collector current (I_C), while the PNP transistor (TR2) is rated for –2 A continuous I_C, both at T_amb ≤ 25 °C with appropriate PCB copper area. Derating applies above 25 °C per Figure 1, with full 3 A capability maintained up to ~70 °C on a 6 cm² FR4 mounting pad.

Can PHPT610030NPK be used in linear mode voltage regulation?

Yes - its low R_CEsat (75–110 mΩ NPN, 110–180 mΩ PNP), tight V_BE(sat) distribution (±0.1 V), and 175 °C T_j rating make it suitable for linear-mode regulators. It supports stable 2 A output with <0.5 °C/W effective thermal resistance when mounted on ceramic PCB, avoiding thermal runaway under load.

How does the LFPAK56D package improve thermal performance over standard DPAK?

The LFPAK56D reduces R_th(j-sp) to 6 K/W versus ~15 K/W for DPAK due to shorter thermal path, larger copper clip area, and dual collector terminations. This yields ~40 % lower junction temperature rise at 3 A, enabling higher ambient operation and eliminating need for external heatsinks in many automotive modules.

Is PHPT610030NPK pin-compatible with other LFPAK56D dual transistors?

No - PHPT610030NPK has a unique 8-pin pinout (E1-B1-E2-B2-C2-C2-C1-C1) optimized for NPN/PNP isolation and thermal symmetry. Other LFPAK56D dual transistors like PHPT610030NK use different internal connectivity (e.g., shared base or emitter), making them non-interchangeable without PCB redesign.
