Product details
Overview
PUMD6 from Nexperia is an NPN/PNP resistor-equipped transistor (RET) in SOT363 (SC-88) package, integrating two complementary transistors with built-in 4.7 kΩ input bias resistors and open R2 terminals. It delivers 50 V VCEO, 100 mA output current per transistor, and operates across –65 °C to 150 °C ambient range. Used for digital switching in industrial control I/O stages where space-constrained dual-polarity drive is required.
For engineers reviewing the PUMD6 datasheet, PUMD6 pinout, PUMD6 application, or PUMD6 equivalent, this page provides verified pin functions, thermal derating curves, off-state input voltage (585 mV typ), on-state input voltage (0.88 V typ), and direct alternatives to BC847/BC857-based discrete bias networks.
Technical Context
The PUMD6 integrates one NPN (TR1) and one PNP (TR2) transistor sharing no internal connection between bases or collectors-each has independent input (I1/I2), output (O1/O2), and emitter (GND1/GND2) terminals. R1 = 4.7 kΩ is connected between each input and its respective emitter; R2 is unconnected (open), enabling flexible external biasing or logic-level interfacing.
TR1 exhibits hFE ≥ 200 at IC = 1 mA, VCE = 5 V; TR2 matches with comparable gain and saturation behavior under negative polarity. Both transistors support fT up to 230 MHz (TR1) and 180 MHz (TR2), confirming suitability for medium-speed digital switching-not RF amplification.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCEO | 50 V max per transistor - supports industrial 24 V rail switching with margin |
| IO | 100 mA max per transistor - drives LEDs, small relays, or logic inputs directly |
| R1 | 4.7 kΩ typ (3.3–6.1 kΩ) - sets base current for ~1 mA at 5 V logic, eliminating external resistor |
| VCE(sat) | 100 mV max at IC = 5 mA, IB = 0.25 mA - ensures low conduction loss in saturated switch mode |
| hFE | ≥ 200 min at IC = 1 mA - guarantees reliable turn-on with minimal base drive overhead |
| fT | 230 MHz (TR1), 180 MHz (TR2) - enables clean edge response in <10 MHz digital control signals |
| Ptot (device) | 300 mW at Tamb ≤ 25 °C - defines thermal limit for continuous dual-transistor operation on FR4 PCB |
Pinout & Package
SOT363 (TSSOP6) plastic surface-mount package: 2.1 mm × 1.25 mm × 0.95 mm body, 0.65 mm lead pitch, 6-pin layout with gull-wing leads.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | GND1 | Emiter of TR1 (NPN); common reference for R1 and I1 |
| 2 | I1 | Base input of TR1 (NPN); internally connected to R1 |
| 3 | O2 | Collector of TR2 (PNP); active-high sink output |
| 4 | GND2 | Emiter of TR2 (PNP); common reference for R1 and I2 |
| 5 | I2 | Base input of TR2 (PNP); internally connected to R1 |
| 6 | O1 | Collector of TR1 (NPN); active-high source output |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual NPN/PNP RET in single SOT363 | Reduces board area by >50% vs. two discrete RETs or four discrete transistors + resistors |
| Matched 4.7 kΩ input bias resistors | Eliminates 2 external resistors per channel, cutting BOM count and placement steps |
| Open R2 configuration | Allows optional external pull-up/down or feedback without modifying internal bias network |
| 150 °C max junction temperature | Supports operation in sealed enclosures or high-ambient industrial environments |
| FR4-compatible thermal resistance | Rth(j-a) = 416 K/W (per device) enables passive cooling in standard PCB layouts |
Applications
| Industrial Digital I/O | Low-Power Peripheral Driver |
|---|---|
|
Use Scenario: Isolating and level-shifting microcontroller GPIO to 24 V PLC input modules. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Dual-polarity switch translating 3.3 V logic to bidirectional 24 V signaling paths. Use Value: Replaces two BC847+BC857 pairs with matched biasing, reducing footprint by 60% and eliminating 4 external resistors. |
Use Scenario: Driving status LEDs and optocoupler inputs in battery-powered sensor nodes. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Low-current active-high (O1) and active-low (O2) output stage controlled by same MCU port. Use Value: Delivers 100 mA per channel at <100 mV saturation, minimizing power loss and heat in compact designs. |
| IC Input Control | Cost-Optimized Logic Interface |
|
Use Scenario: Enabling/disabling enable pins on multiple voltage regulators or communication ICs. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: High-side (TR1) and low-side (TR2) switch controlling VEN and GND_EN lines simultaneously. Use Value: Built-in R1 ensures defined logic thresholds (VI(on) = 0.88 V typ), preventing floating inputs during power sequencing. |
Use Scenario: Replacing BC847/BC857 discrete transistor arrays in consumer appliance control boards. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Drop-in functional replacement for legacy dual-transistor circuits requiring no schematic change. Use Value: Identical pinout to PUMH7 (NPN/NPN) and PUMB3 (PNP/PNP) complements enables family-based design reuse. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual-polarity switching applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| PUMH7 | NPN/NPN pair; identical R1 = 4.7 kΩ, same SOT363 package and pinout | Used when both outputs require sourcing capability (e.g., driving two pull-up loads) | Select when dual high-side switching is needed instead of complementary sourcing/sinking |
| PUMB3 | PNP/PNP pair; same R1 value and package, but inverted polarity on both channels | Preferred for dual low-side switching or negative-rail interface applications | Choose when both outputs must sink current relative to a common positive rail |
Compared with PUMD6, PUMH7 offers matched sourcing behavior ideal for parallel load control, while PUMB3 provides uniform sinking-neither provides the complementary NPN/PNP functionality critical for push-pull or bidirectional signal translation.

FAQ
What is the function of the open R2 terminal in PUMD6?
R2 is unconnected (open) in the PUMD6, meaning no internal resistor links the base to collector. This preserves full flexibility for external feedback, pull-up, or active biasing configurations without compromising the built-in R1-to-emitter path. It avoids unintended gain reduction or instability seen in fixed R1/R2 RETs.
Can PUMD6 replace BC847 and BC857 in existing designs without layout changes?
No-PUMD6 uses SOT363 (6-pin), while BC847/BC857 are SOT23 (3-pin). However, it replaces *pairs* of those devices plus their four bias resistors. A new PCB layout is required, but net component count drops by 50%, and routing complexity decreases due to integrated biasing and dual-channel integration.
What is the maximum safe operating current per transistor at 85 °C ambient?
At Tamb = 85 °C, the device's total power dissipation derates to ~180 mW (from 300 mW at 25 °C). With VCE(sat) ≤ 100 mV, each transistor can safely deliver up to ~80 mA continuously-verified via Fig. 1's per-device derating curve and thermal resistance of 416 K/W on FR4.
Is PUMD6 qualified for automotive applications?
No. Per Section 14 revision history, PUMD6 v.4 (20250930) explicitly states "Product(s) changed to non-automotive qualification." Automotive-grade equivalents (e.g., PUMD6-Q) are separately qualified and listed on Nexperia.com-standard PUMD6 lacks AEC-Q101 stress testing and automotive PPAP documentation.
