Product details
Overview
PMP4201G from Nexperia is a matched NPN/NPN double transistor in SOT353 (SC-88A) package, designed for precision analog functions requiring tight hFE and VBE matching between two fully isolated transistors. It delivers 45 V VCEO, 100 mA IC per transistor, and hFE1/hFE2 matching of 0.98–1.0 under 5 V/2 mA conditions - enabling stable current mirroring and differential amplification in automotive-grade signal conditioning circuits.
For engineers reviewing the PMP4201G datasheet, PMP4201G pinout, PMP4201G application, or PMP4201G equivalent, this device is selected specifically for high-precision dual-transistor roles where base-emitter voltage matching ≤2 mV and DC current gain ratio ≥0.98 are required - not as a general-purpose switching transistor.
Technical Context
The PMP4201G integrates two electrically isolated NPN transistors on a single die within a TSSOP5 (SOT353) package, with shared emitter terminal (Pin 2) enabling compact current mirror topologies. Its AEC-Q101 qualification confirms suitability for automotive ambient temperature ranges (−65 °C to +150 °C) and reflow-soldering-only assembly.
Key electrical behaviors include VBE matching ≤2 mV and hFE matching ≥0.98 at VCE = 5 V, IC = 2 mA, Tamb = 25 °C - achieved via monolithic process trimming. Thermal resistance Rth(j-a) is 416 K/W per device on FR4 PCB, supporting continuous operation up to 150 °C junction temperature.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCEO | 45 V - maximum collector-emitter voltage with open base; defines safe linear operation ceiling in current mirror or diff-amp bias networks. |
| IC | 100 mA - continuous collector current per transistor; supports medium-current analog stages without derating at 25 °C. |
| hFE1/hFE2 | 0.98–1.0 - ratio of smaller/larger DC current gain; ensures <2% gain mismatch critical for balanced differential pair performance. |
| VBE1−VBE2 | ≤2 mV - absolute difference in base-emitter voltage at 5 V/2 mA; enables sub-0.1% current error in precision mirrors. |
| fT | 100–250 MHz - transition frequency at 5 V/10 mA; supports audio and low-MHz signal processing without bandwidth limitation. |
| Rth(j-a) | 416 K/W - thermal resistance junction-to-ambient per device on FR4; determines max power dissipation (300 mW) before thermal shutdown. |
Pinout & Package
SOT353 (TSSOP5) plastic surface-mount package: 5-pin, 0.65 mm pitch, 2.1 mm × 1.25 mm × 0.95 mm body. Fully isolated transistors share only mechanical proximity - no internal electrical coupling beyond common emitter connection.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | B1 | Base of transistor TR1 - controls current flow from C1 to E1/E2; independent control node for first transistor leg. |
| 2 | E1, E2 | Common emitter terminal - shared cathode node for both transistors; enables direct current mirror configuration without external wiring. |
| 3 | B2 | Base of transistor TR2 - independently biased input for second transistor; paired with B1 for differential or mirrored drive. |
| 4 | C2 | Collector of transistor TR2 - output node for second transistor; used with C1 to form dual-output current sources or differential collectors. |
| 5 | C1 | Collector of transistor TR1 - primary output node for first transistor; forms matched pair with C2 in symmetrical topologies. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Current gain matching | hFE1/hFE2 ≥ 0.98 ensures ≤2% gain deviation - eliminates manual transistor binning in production differential amplifiers. |
| Base-emitter voltage matching | VBE1−VBE2 ≤ 2 mV at 2 mA enables <0.1% current error in mirror legs - critical for laser diode bias and sensor front-ends. |
| Common-emitter pinout | Shared Pin 2 (E1/E2) reduces PCB trace length and parasitic imbalance - improves high-frequency matching in RF bias networks. |
| AEC-Q101 qualification | Validated for automotive underhood environments (−65 °C to +150 °C); supports ASIL-B system-level functional safety compliance. |
Applications
| Current Mirror | Differential Amplifier |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Precision constant-current source for laser diode bias or ADC reference current generation. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Dual-transistor current mirror providing matched output current proportional to reference input. Use Value: ≤2 mV VBE mismatch ensures <0.1% current tracking error across temperature - eliminating calibration in production test. |
Use Scenario: Input stage of automotive cabin temperature sensor amplifier with rail-to-rail input common-mode range. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Matched NPN pair forming active load and gain stage in discrete op-amp topology. Use Value: 0.98 hFE1/hFE2 ratio maintains >60 dB CMRR over −40 °C to +125 °C - meeting ISO 16750-4 transient immunity requirements. |
| Laser Diode Driver | Automotive Sensor Interface |
Use Scenario: Low-noise bias current generator for VCSELs in driver monitoring systems. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: High-fT (≥100 MHz), matched pair delivering stable bias while rejecting supply ripple. Use Value: 3.3 dB noise figure at 1 kHz enables <1 µV RMS input-referred noise - preserving SNR in eye-tracking optical sensors. |
Use Scenario: Signal conditioning front-end for MEMS pressure sensors in brake fluid reservoirs. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Dual-transistor differential pair converting small ratiometric bridge outputs into amplified voltage. Use Value: AEC-Q101 qualification guarantees operation at 150 °C junction temperature - supporting under-hood placement without heatsinking. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar matched NPN transistor applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| PMP4501G | NPN/NPN complement with identical pinout but higher hFE (300–600) and looser matching (hFE1/hFE2 ≥ 0.95). | Less precise matching makes it suitable for non-critical biasing but not for laser diode current regulation. | Select when higher gain is needed and VBE matching ≤5 mV is acceptable. |
| BC847BDW1T1G | Matched NPN pair in SC-88 package but rated only to 45 V VCEO and 100 mA IC; hFE matching unspecified, no AEC-Q101 certification. | Not qualified for automotive use; lacks guaranteed matching specs - requires post-production binning for precision designs. | Choose only for cost-sensitive industrial applications where AEC-Q101 and guaranteed matching are unnecessary. |
Compared with PMP4201G, PMP4501G trades tighter matching for higher gain, while BC847BDW1T1G omits automotive qualification and matching guarantees - making PMP4201G the sole choice for AEC-Q101-compliant, production-ready precision analog designs.

FAQ
Is PMP4201G pin-compatible with PMP4501G?
Yes - both use identical SOT353 (TSSOP5) pinout: Pin 1 = B1, Pin 2 = E1/E2, Pin 3 = B2, Pin 4 = C2, Pin 5 = C1. This allows direct substitution in layouts where higher hFE or looser matching is acceptable, though thermal and matching performance differ.
What is the maximum allowable power dissipation for PMP4201G at 100 °C ambient?
At Tamb = 100 °C, derated power dissipation is approximately 120 mW per device, calculated using Rth(j-a) = 416 K/W and Tj(max) = 150 °C: Ptot = (150 − 100) / 416 ≈ 0.120 W. Exceeding this risks thermal runaway in continuous operation.
Does PMP4201G support wave soldering?
No - the datasheet explicitly states reflow soldering is the only recommended method. Wave soldering is not qualified due to thermal stress on the ultra-thin SOT353 package; using it may cause delamination or parametric shift in matching performance.
Can PMP4201G be used in a cascode configuration?
Yes - its 45 V VCEO and 50 V VCBO ratings support cascode use with proper biasing. However, the shared emitter (Pin 2) constrains topology: TR1 and TR2 must operate in common-emitter mode, limiting cascode flexibility versus discrete transistors.
