Product details
Overview
PUMD15-QX from Nexperia is a dual NPN/PNP resistor-equipped transistor (RET) in SOT363-3 (SC-88) package, rated for 50 V VCEO, 100 mA output current per transistor, with integrated 4.7 kΩ input bias resistors (R1 = R2). It serves as a compact, AEC-Q101-qualified digital switching pair for automotive signal-level interfacing and peripheral control.
For engineers reviewing the PUMD15-QX datasheet, PUMD15-QX pinout, PUMD15-QX application, or PUMD15-QX equivalent, this device is selected for space-constrained, low-current digital logic translation, IC input driving, and replacement of discrete BJT pairs where built-in biasing reduces PCB area and assembly cost.
Technical Context
This double RET integrates one NPN (TR1) and one PNP (TR2) transistor sharing no internal connection between them-each has independent emitter-grounded configuration and dedicated base-input and collector-output terminals. The matched 4.7 kΩ R1/R2 bias network enables direct TTL/CMOS-level drive without external resistors.
It operates across –40 °C to +150 °C ambient, supports 200 mW per transistor and 300 mW per device power dissipation on FR4 PCB, and delivers hFE ≥ 30 (NPN) and ≥ 20 (PNP) at IC = 10 mA, with VCE(sat) ≤ 150 mV (NPN) and ≤ 200 mV (PNP) under specified drive conditions.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCEO | 50 V - Maximum safe collector-emitter voltage before breakdown; defines rail compatibility up to 48 V automotive systems. |
| IO | 100 mA - Continuous DC output current per transistor; sufficient for LED drivers, small relays, and logic buffer loads. |
| R1 / R2 | 4.7 kΩ ±28% - Integrated base bias resistors eliminate two external components per transistor, reducing BOM count and layout area. |
| hFE | ≥30 (TR1 NPN), ≥20 (TR2 PNP) - Ensures reliable saturation with standard logic-level base drive (e.g., 3.3 V MCU GPIO). |
| VCE(sat) | ≤150 mV (TR1), ≤200 mV (TR2) - Low saturation voltage minimizes power loss and heat generation in switching applications. |
| AEC-Q101 | Qualified - Validated for automotive-grade reliability including temperature cycling, HTRB, and ESD robustness (HBM ≥ 8 kV). |
Pinout & Package
SOT363-3 (TSSOP6) plastic surface-mount package: 2.2 mm × 1.35 mm footprint, 0.65 mm pitch, 0.95 mm max height, designed for reflow soldering with standardized land pattern (JEDEC MO-178AC).
| Pin | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | GND1 | Emitter terminal of TR1 (NPN); common reference for first transistor's current path. |
| 2 | I1 | Base input of TR1 (NPN); connected internally to R1; accepts logic-high signal to turn on TR1. |
| 3 | O2 | Collector output of TR2 (PNP); active-low switching node when TR2 is enabled. |
| 4 | GND2 | Emitter terminal of TR2 (PNP); separate ground reference for second transistor's current path. |
| 5 | I2 | Base input of TR2 (PNP); connected internally to R1; driven low (or pulled below VEB) to activate TR2. |
| 6 | O1 | Collector output of TR1 (NPN); active-high switching node when TR1 is enabled. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Integrated bias network | Matched 4.7 kΩ R1/R2 resistors per transistor reduce external component count by 4 vs. discrete BJT pair. |
| Dual polarity topology | Independent NPN (TR1) and PNP (TR2) allow complementary push-pull or level-shifting configurations without cross-coupling. |
| AEC-Q101 qualification | Validated for automotive underhood environments: 150 °C Tj, 1000-cycle temperature cycling, 1000 h HTRB. |
| Low thermal resistance | Rth(j-a) = 417 K/W (per device) enables operation at full 100 mA load without heatsinking on standard FR4 PCB. |
Applications
| Automotive Door Module Inputs | Industrial PLC Digital Input Stage |
|---|---|

Use Scenario: Interfacing mechanical switch signals (e.g., door ajar, trunk open) to 3.3 V microcontroller GPIOs in body control modules. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Signal-level translation and current limiting; TR1 handles high-side pull-up logic, TR2 provides low-side sink capability. Use Value: Eliminates need for four discrete resistors and two BJTs, cutting PCB area by >60% and improving production yield. |
Use Scenario: Converting 24 V industrial sensor outputs to 5 V logic levels for FPGA or ARM-based controller inputs. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Voltage-level translator with built-in current limiting; TR2 sinks 24 V signal through R1 to GND2, TR1 pulls up to 5 V via O1. Use Value: Withstands 50 V transients and operates reliably from –40 °C to +125 °C ambient, meeting IEC 61000-4-5 surge immunity requirements. |
| USB-C Port Power Switch Control | Smart Home Sensor Hub Interface |
|
Use Scenario: Enabling/disabling VBUS power paths and CC line termination in USB-C receptacle circuits. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Dual-switch driver for high-side (TR1) and low-side (TR2) FET gate control; coordinated enable/disable sequencing. Use Value: Matched R1/R2 ensures consistent turn-on thresholds across both transistors, minimizing shoot-through risk during state transitions. |
Use Scenario: Driving multiple I²C pull-up lines and interrupt inputs from battery-powered environmental sensors (temp/humidity/motion). IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Low-quiescent-current digital buffer; TR1 drives pull-ups, TR2 handles interrupt assertion with <1 µA leakage (ICEO ≤ 5 µA @ 150 °C). Use Value: 100 nA ICBO and 900 µA IEBO ensure stable idle-state behavior over full temperature range, extending battery life. |
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; identical R1/R2 values and package; lacks PNP complement. | Suitable only for dual high-side or parallel-drive topologies-not for complementary switching. | Select when both outputs require sourcing capability and no sinking function is needed. |
| PUMB15-Q | PNP/PNP configuration; same R1/R2 and package; no NPN element. | Applicable only for dual low-side or inverted logic buffering-not for push-pull or level shift. | Choose when both channels must sink current and operate with negative logic polarity. |
Compared with PUMD15-QX, PUMH15-Q and PUMB15-Q offer identical biasing and packaging but lack complementary polarity-making PUMD15-QX uniquely suited for bidirectional interface tasks requiring both sourcing and sinking in one footprint.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating junction temperature for PUMD15-QX?
The absolute maximum junction temperature (Tj) is 150 °C, validated per AEC-Q101 stress testing. At ambient temperatures up to 125 °C and 100 mA load, thermal derating requires ≤300 mW total device power dissipation on standard FR4 PCB-achievable without forced cooling due to its 417 K/W Rth(j-a).
Can PUMD15-QX be used with 1.8 V logic inputs?
No-its VI(on) is specified at 1.9 V (typ) for TR1 and –1.9 V (typ) for TR2, with minimum guaranteed VI(on) of 2.5 V (TR1) and –2.5 V (TR2). Driving it directly from 1.8 V logic risks incomplete turn-on; a level shifter or higher-voltage GPIO (≥3.3 V) is required for reliable saturation.
How does the R2/R1 ratio affect switching behavior?
The R2/R1 ratio is 1.0 ±20% (0.8–1.2), ensuring matched base current division between input and feedback paths. This maintains consistent hFE-compensated gain across temperature and process variation, stabilizing VCE(sat) and propagation delay-critical for timing-critical digital interfaces like I²C bus control.
Is there crosstalk between the NPN and PNP transistors in PUMD15-QX?
No measurable electrical crosstalk exists-the NPN (TR1) and PNP (TR2) share only the package substrate; their collectors, emitters, and bases are fully isolated. Measured inter-transistor capacitance is <0.1 pF, and leakage current between pins 1–4 (GND1/GND2) is <10 nA, confirming functional independence per channel.
