Product details
Overview
PMP4201V from Nexperia is an NPN/NPN matched double transistor in SOT666 package, rated for 45 V VCEO, 100 mA IC, and featuring hFE matching ratio ≥0.98 and VBE mismatch ≤2 mV at 2 mA/5 V; used in precision current mirror and differential amplifier circuits requiring tight transistor pairing.
For engineers reviewing the PMP4201V datasheet, PMP4201V pinout, PMP4201V application, or PMP4201V equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical matching specs, thermal resistance (Rth(j-a) = 416 K/W per device), SOT666 terminal mapping, and direct alternatives for analog front-end design validation.
Technical Context
This dual NPN transistor integrates two fully isolated silicon die in a single ultra-small SOT666 package, enabling matched performance without external layout symmetry constraints. Its hFE1/hFE2 ratio ≥0.98 and VBE1−VBE2 ≤2 mV are measured under identical conditions (VCE = 5 V, IC = 2 mA, Tamb = 25 °C), ensuring predictable gain and offset behavior in high-accuracy analog topologies.
The device supports reflow soldering only on FR4 PCBs with standard footprint, delivering 300 mW total power dissipation at Tamb ≤25 °C and junction temperature up to 150 °C. Thermal resistance from junction to ambient is 416 K/W per device - lower than per-transistor value - confirming thermal coupling benefits of the monolithic dual-die construction.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCEO | 45 V maximum collector-emitter voltage per transistor; defines safe operating voltage headroom in linear and switching applications. |
| IC | 100 mA continuous collector current per transistor; sets upper limit for bias and signal current handling capability. |
| hFE matching | ≥0.98 (hFE1/hFE2); ensures <2% gain mismatch between transistors, critical for current mirror accuracy. |
| VBE mismatch | ≤2 mV (|VBE1 − VBE2|); enables sub-millivolt input offset control in differential pairs and active loads. |
| fT | 100–250 MHz typical transition frequency; supports stable operation up to mid-VHF range in RF bias and small-signal amplification. |
| Rth(j-a) | 416 K/W per device; reflects thermal performance of dual-die package on FR4 PCB, informing heatsinking and power derating decisions. |
| Ptot | 300 mW total power dissipation per device at Tamb ≤25 °C; defines combined thermal budget for both transistors under DC or pulsed operation. |
Pinout & Package
SOT666 plastic surface-mount package: 6-pin, 0.5 mm pitch, 1.6 mm × 1.2 mm × 0.55 mm body; designed for automated placement and reflow-only assembly on FR4 PCBs.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | B1 | Base of transistor TR1; connects to control node in current mirror or differential pair input leg. |
| 2 | B2 | Base of transistor TR2; referenced against B1 for matched biasing or differential drive. |
| 3 | C2 | Collector of TR2; output node in current mirror sink or differential amplifier active load path. |
| 4 | E2 | Emitter of TR2; common emitter node in differential pair or current mirror reference path. |
| 5 | E1 | Emitter of TR1; symmetrical emitter connection enabling matched current division or feedback paths. |
| 6 | C1 | Collector of TR1; primary output node in current mirror source or differential amplifier output leg. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Current gain matching | hFE1/hFE2 ≥ 0.98 ensures ≤2% gain error in mirrored current transfer, reducing static error in precision bias networks. |
| Base-emitter voltage matching | VBE1−VBE2 ≤ 2 mV minimizes input offset in differential amplifiers, supporting <10 µV effective input-referred offset at matched bias points. |
| Application-optimized pinout | Pin sequence (B1, B2, C2, E2, E1, C1) enables direct routing of differential base inputs and interleaved collector/emitter outputs without cross-layer vias in compact layouts. |
| Thermal coupling advantage | Per-device Rth(j-a) = 416 K/W (vs. 625 K/W per transistor) confirms improved heat sharing between matched dies, enhancing thermal tracking during dynamic operation. |
Applications
| Current Mirror | Differential Amplifier |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Precision current replication in analog sensor interfaces and DAC output stages where output current must track reference current within 0.5%. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Dual NPN acts as matched current source/sink pair, with TR1 as reference leg and TR2 as output leg. Use Value: hFE matching ≥0.98 and VBE mismatch ≤2 mV directly limit current error to <0.8% across temperature and supply variations. |
Use Scenario: Input stage of rail-to-rail op-amp or instrumentation amplifier requiring low input offset and high CMRR. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: TR1 and TR2 form the core differential pair, with matched VBE and hFE minimizing first-order offset and gain imbalance. Use Value: Sub-2 mV VBE mismatch enables input offset voltages below 10 µV when combined with symmetric collector load design. |
| Active Load | Current Reference |
Use Scenario: High-impedance active load in discrete transconductance amplifiers or folded-cascode stages where gain stability depends on transistor matching. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: TR2 configured as diode-connected active load for TR1, leveraging internal matching to maintain constant transconductance ratio. Use Value: Matched hFE and VBE ensure consistent gm tracking between input and load devices, improving gain linearity over process and temperature. |
Use Scenario: Two-terminal current reference in portable medical sensors or low-power IoT nodes requiring stable bias current independent of supply ripple. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: TR1 biased as constant-current source, TR2 used as matched sensing element to regulate output via feedback to base. Use Value: Tight VBE matching enables <±0.1% current regulation accuracy without trimming, reducing component count in space-constrained designs. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar matched NPN transistor applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| PMP4501V | NPN/NPN complement with identical SOT666 package but higher hFE min (250 vs. 200) and looser hFE matching (0.95 vs. 0.98). | Acceptable where tighter gain matching is not required; less suitable for sub-1% current mirror accuracy. | Select when higher minimum hFE is prioritized over matching precision. |
| BCM847DS | Matched NPN pair in SOT363; lower VCEO (45 V same), but wider VBE mismatch (≤5 mV) and no published hFE matching spec. | Functional in basic current mirrors but lacks guaranteed matching for high-accuracy differential amplifiers. | Choose only for cost-sensitive, non-critical matching applications where layout symmetry can compensate. |
Compared with PMP4501V and BCM847DS, PMP4201V delivers superior hFE matching (≥0.98) and tighter VBE mismatch (≤2 mV), making it the only option qualified for <0.8% current mirror error and <10 µV input offset in production analog circuits.

FAQ
Is PMP4201V automotive-qualified?
No. Per Nexperia's 2022 revision history, PMP4201V is explicitly designated as non-automotive qualified. It has not undergone AEC-Q101 stress testing or automotive-specific qualification, and its use in safety-critical vehicle systems is not supported or warranted by the manufacturer.
What is the recommended soldering method for PMP4201V?
Reflow soldering is the only recommended method. The datasheet prohibits wave or hand soldering due to thermal stress risks. Reflow profile must comply with JEDEC J-STD-020, and the device must be mounted on FR4 PCB with single-sided copper, tin-plated finish, and the exact footprint shown in Figure 12.
Can PMP4201V replace discrete SOT23 transistors in existing current mirror designs?
Yes, but only with layout revision. Its SOT666 pinout (B1,B2,C2,E2,E1,C1) differs from standard SOT23 placements; direct drop-in replacement is not possible. However, the matched performance eliminates need for manual selection or layout symmetry, improving yield and consistency.
How does thermal resistance differ between per-transistor and per-device ratings?
Per-transistor Rth(j-a) is 625 K/W; per-device is 416 K/W. This 33% reduction confirms thermal coupling between the two die inside the SOT666 package, meaning both transistors share heat more effectively than separate devices - critical for maintaining matching during dynamic thermal transients.
