Product details
Overview
PUMD15 from Nexperia is an AEC-Q101-qualified NPN/PNP resistor-equipped double transistor (RET) in SOT363-3 (SC-88) package, featuring integrated 4.7 kΩ input bias resistors per channel, 50 V VCEO, and 100 mA output current capability - used for bidirectional digital signal conditioning in space-constrained automotive and industrial control interfaces.
For engineers reviewing the PUMD15 datasheet, PUMD15 pinout, PUMD15 application, or PUMD15 equivalent, this device serves as a drop-in replacement for discrete NPN+PNP pairs in level-shifting, bus termination, and low-current peripheral driver circuits where board area, BOM count, and thermal reliability are critical.
Technical Context
The PUMD15 integrates two monolithically matched transistors - TR1 (NPN) and TR2 (PNP) - each with dedicated on-die R1 and R2 bias resistors configured to enable direct logic-level drive without external base resistors. Its dual-polarity architecture supports complementary switching in push-pull or inverter configurations.
Each transistor operates independently with verified DC current gain (hFE ≥ 30 at IC = 10 mA), saturation voltage ≤ 150 mV, and transition frequencies of 230 MHz (NPN) and 180 MHz (PNP), enabling reliable operation up to medium-speed digital switching (≤ 10 MHz).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCEO | 50 V - Maximum collector-emitter voltage before breakdown; enables use in 24 V industrial bus and 12 V automotive domains. |
| IO | 100 mA - Continuous output current per transistor; sufficient for driving LEDs, small relays, and logic inputs. |
| R1 | 4.7 kΩ ±28% - Integrated input bias resistor; eliminates need for external base resistors in standard 3.3 V/5 V logic interfacing. |
| hFE | ≥30 - Minimum DC current gain at VCE = 5 V, IC = 10 mA; ensures predictable switching with low drive current. |
| VCE(sat) | ≤150 mV - Collector-emitter saturation voltage at IC/IB = 20; minimizes power loss and self-heating in high-duty-cycle operation. |
| fT (TR1) | 230 MHz - Transition frequency for NPN transistor; supports clean edge integrity in ≤10 MHz digital signal routing. |
| Ptot (device) | 300 mW - Total power dissipation at Tamb ≤ 25 °C on FR4 PCB; defines thermal derating envelope for sustained operation. |
Pinout & Package
SOT363-3 (TSSOP6) plastic surface-mounted package: 2.2 mm × 1.35 mm footprint, 0.65 mm pitch, 0.95 mm max height, optimized for automated placement and reflow soldering on dense PCBs.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | GND1 | Emiter connection for TR1 (NPN); common reference node for first transistor's current path. |
| 2 | I1 | Base input for TR1 (NPN); accepts logic-high signal directly via internal R1 resistor. |
| 3 | O2 | Collector output for TR2 (PNP); active-low switching node when TR2 is enabled. |
| 4 | GND2 | Emiter connection for TR2 (PNP); independent ground return for second transistor. |
| 5 | I2 | Base input for TR2 (PNP); accepts logic-low signal directly via internal R1 resistor. |
| 6 | O1 | Collector output for TR1 (NPN); active-high switching node when TR1 is enabled. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| AEC-Q101 qualification | Validated for automotive-grade temperature cycling (-40 °C to +125 °C), vibration, and ESD robustness per ISO 16750. |
| Integrated R1/R2 bias network | 4.7 kΩ ±28% per channel; enables single-resistor logic interface and eliminates layout sensitivity to stray capacitance. |
| Reduced component count | Replaces two discrete transistors + four external base resistors; cuts BOM line items and placement time by >60%. |
| Thermal resistance (j-a) | 417 K/W per device on FR4 PCB; supports stable operation up to 85 °C ambient without heatsinking. |
| Complementary RET pairing | NPN/PNP topology allows true push-pull output stages without cross-conduction risk in level translation. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar resistor-equipped transistor applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| PUMH15 | NPN/NPN configuration; identical R1/R2 values and package but lacks PNP channel. | Suitable only for unidirectional or parallel-output applications requiring dual NPNs. | Select when both outputs must sink current or share common emitter reference. |
| PUMB15 | PNP/PNP configuration; same bias resistors and thermal specs but no NPN channel. | Applicable only in high-side switching or active-low logic fanout scenarios. | Choose when both outputs must source current or require negative logic polarity. |
Compared with PUMH15 and PUMB15, the PUMD15 uniquely provides complementary NPN/PNP switching in one die - essential for push-pull drivers, inverter stages, and bidirectional bus control where polarity inversion and matched timing are required.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating junction temperature for PUMD15?
The absolute maximum junction temperature (Tj) is 150 °C, validated per IEC 60134 limiting values. Derating begins above 25 °C ambient, with total device power dissipation dropping linearly to zero at 125 °C ambient on FR4 PCB - confirmed by Figure 1 in the datasheet.
Can PUMD15 replace discrete BC847/BC857 pairs in existing designs?
Yes - PUMD15 matches BC847 (NPN) and BC857 (PNP) electrical characteristics including VCEO, hFE, and VCE(sat), while integrating bias resistors. Pin mapping differs (SOT363-3 vs. SOT23), so PCB layout revision is required, but schematic changes are minimal or unnecessary.
Is the R1/R2 ratio truly 1:1, and how tightly is it controlled?
R2/R1 ratio is specified as 0.8 to 1.2 (typical 1.0), measured under defined test conditions per Table 8. This tolerance ensures consistent biasing across temperature and process variation, supporting reliable logic-level switching without external trimming.
Does PUMD15 support 1.8 V logic input drive?
No - VI(on) is specified at 1.9 V (typ) for TR1 and −1.9 V (typ) for TR2, with minimum on-state input voltage of 2.5 V (TR1) and −2.5 V (TR2). It is not guaranteed to switch reliably below 2.5 V logic thresholds; use PUMD3,4 or PMMD15 for 1.8 V compatibility.
