Product details
Overview
PUMD15-QF 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 transistor, 50 V VCEO, 100 mA IO, and dual-channel digital switching capability for automotive signal-level interfacing.
For engineers reviewing the PUMD15-QF datasheet, PUMD15-QF pinout, PUMD15-QF application, or PUMD15-QF equivalent, this device serves as a space- and BOM-optimized replacement for discrete NPN+PNP pairs in low-current logic translation, IC input control, and peripheral driver circuits where bias resistor matching and thermal co-location are critical.
Technical Context
This dual RET integrates one NPN (TR1) and one PNP (TR2) transistor with matched on-chip bias networks-R1 = R2 = 4.7 kΩ (±28%)-enabling direct TTL/CMOS-compatible drive without external base resistors. Each channel operates independently with separate emitter (GND1/GND2), collector (O1/O2), and base-input (I1/I2) terminals.
The device supports bidirectional level-shifting: TR1 (NPN) sinks current when I1 exceeds ~1.9 V (VI(on) typ), while TR2 (PNP) sources current when I2 falls below ~−1.9 V (VI(on) typ for PNP polarity), with guaranteed VCE(sat) ≤ 150 mV at IC = 10 mA and IB = 0.5 mA.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCEO | 50 V - Maximum safe collector-emitter voltage for both NPN and PNP transistors under open-base conditions. |
| IO | 100 mA - Continuous output current rating per transistor, enabling direct drive of LEDs, small relays, or logic inputs. |
| R1 / R2 | 4.7 kΩ ±28% - Integrated input bias resistors eliminate external components and ensure matched turn-on thresholds across channels. |
| hFE | ≥30 - Minimum DC current gain at VCE = 5 V, IC = 10 mA, ensuring reliable saturation with low base drive. |
| VCE(sat) | ≤150 mV - Low saturation voltage minimizes power loss and heat generation during switching in high-duty-cycle applications. |
| fT | 230 MHz (NPN), 180 MHz (PNP) - Transition frequency supports fast digital switching up to ~10–20 MHz edge rates. |
| Ptot (per device) | 300 mW - Total power dissipation limit on FR4 PCB, defining thermal design margin for dual-channel operation. |
Pinout & Package
SOT363-3 (TSSOP6) plastic surface-mounted package with 0.65 mm lead pitch, 2.2 mm × 1.35 mm body, and exposed pad not present. Designed for reflow soldering per IPC-J-STD-020.
| Pin | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | GND1 | Emiter connection for NPN transistor (TR1); common reference for I1/O1 path. |
| 2 | I1 | Base input for NPN transistor (TR1); accepts logic-high signals to enable sinking action. |
| 3 | O2 | Collector output for PNP transistor (TR2); sources current when I2 is pulled low. |
| 4 | GND2 | Emiter connection for PNP transistor (TR2); common reference for I2/O2 path. |
| 5 | I2 | Base input for PNP transistor (TR2); accepts logic-low signals to enable sourcing action. |
| 6 | O1 | Collector output for NPN transistor (TR1); sinks current when I1 is driven high. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Integrated bias network | Matched R1 = R2 = 4.7 kΩ on-die resistors reduce component count by two per channel and eliminate resistor tolerance stacking. |
| AEC-Q101 qualification | Qualified for automotive ambient temperature range (−40 °C to +150 °C) and humidity, vibration, and ESD stress per standard. |
| Dual complementary topology | NPN+PNP pairing enables single-package push-pull or level-shift functionality without cross-conduction risk. |
| Low VCE(sat) | ≤150 mV ensures <1.5 mW conduction loss at 10 mA, supporting thermally constrained PCB layouts. |
| Small-footprint packaging | SOT363-3 occupies 2.97 mm² board area-40% smaller than SO-6-ideal for space-constrained ADAS and body control modules. |
Applications
| Automotive Door Module Driver | Industrial PLC Input Conditioning |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual RET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| PUMH15-Q | NPN/NPN configuration only; no PNP channel; identical R1/R2 values and package. | Limited to sink-only or parallel-output topologies; cannot implement push-pull or bidirectional level shift. | Select when dual-sinking (e.g., two active-low loads) is required and sourcing capability is unnecessary. |
| PUMB15-Q | PNP/PNP configuration only; no NPN channel; same resistor values and footprint. | Suitable only for source-only applications; lacks complementary switching for rail-to-rail signal translation. | Choose for dual high-side switching (e.g., two active-high sensors) where ground-referenced drive is prohibited. |
Compared with PUMH15-Q and PUMB15-Q, the PUMD15-QF uniquely delivers true complementary NPN/PNP operation in one die-enabling compact push-pull buffers, bidirectional level translators, and fault-tolerant input conditioning unachievable with same-polarity RETs.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating junction temperature for PUMD15-QF?
The absolute maximum junction temperature (Tj) is 150 °C, validated per AEC-Q101 stress testing. Derating begins above 25 °C ambient, with total device power dissipation limited to 300 mW on FR4 PCB. Thermal resistance from junction to ambient is 417 K/W in free air, requiring careful layout in enclosed or high-temperature environments.
Can PUMD15-QF replace discrete transistor-resistor combinations in existing designs?
Yes-PUMD15-QF directly substitutes two matched NPN+PNP transistors plus four external 4.7 kΩ resistors. Pin compatibility with SOT363-3 footprints allows drop-in replacement; however, verify I/O polarity alignment (I1/O1 for NPN, I2/O2 for PNP) and confirm GND1/GND2 separation matches your schematic grounding scheme.
Is the R1/R2 ratio truly 1:1, and how tightly is it matched?
R2/R1 ratio is specified as 0.8–1.2 (typical 1.0), meaning worst-case mismatch is ±20%. This is tighter than typical discrete resistor pairing (±5% each yields ±10% ratio error), and the on-die integration ensures tracking across temperature and voltage-critical for consistent VI(on)/VI(off) behavior in automotive environments.
Does PUMD15-QF support 1.8 V logic input drive?
No-minimum VI(on) for TR1 (NPN) is 1.9 V (typical) at IC = 20 mA, and TR2 (PNP) requires VI(on) ≤ −1.9 V. Driving from 1.8 V CMOS outputs may result in incomplete turn-on or elevated VCE(sat); use with 3.3 V or 5 V logic families is recommended for guaranteed performance.
