Product details
Overview
PUMH16 from Nexperia is a dual NPN resistor-equipped transistor (RET) in SOT363-3 (SC-88) package, rated for 50 V VCEO, 100 mA output current per transistor, with integrated bias resistors R1 = 22 kΩ and R2 = 47 kΩ. It functions as a compact, AEC-Q101-qualified digital switching pair for low-current peripheral interfacing and IC input control in space-constrained automotive and industrial PCBs.
For engineers reviewing the PUMH16 datasheet, PUMH16 pinout, PUMH16 application, or PUMH16 equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical parameters, validated dual-transistor pin mapping, confirmed automotive qualification status, and real-world use cases in digital logic interface and peripheral driver circuits.
Technical Context
The PUMH16 integrates two independent NPN transistors, each with dedicated base biasing networks: R1 (22 kΩ) connects input to base, R2 (47 kΩ) connects base to emitter, enabling direct TTL/CMOS-level drive without external resistors. The device operates with VI(on) = 1.1 V (typ) and VI(off) = 0.8 V (typ), supporting reliable switching at 5 V logic rails.
Each transistor exhibits VCE(sat) ≤ 150 mV at IC = 10 mA / IB = 0.5 mA and hFE ≥ 80 at VCE = 5 V, IC = 5 mA, ensuring predictable gain and low saturation loss in digital on/off applications.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCEO | 50 V - Maximum collector-emitter voltage before breakdown; supports 24 V system interfaces with margin. |
| IO | 100 mA - Continuous output current per transistor; sufficient for LED drivers and logic-level signal buffering. |
| R1 | 22 kΩ (typ) - Input bias resistor value; sets base current for standard 5 V CMOS/TTL drive compatibility. |
| R2/R1 ratio | 2.1 (typ) - Fixed internal feedback ratio; ensures stable turn-off behavior and noise immunity. |
| Ptot (per device) | 300 mW - Total power dissipation on FR4 PCB; enables operation up to +85 °C ambient without heatsinking. |
| AEC-Q101 qualified | Yes - Validated for automotive-grade reliability including temperature cycling, HTRB, and ESD testing. |
Pinout & Package
Package: TSSOP6 (SOT363-3), 2.2 mm × 1.35 mm × 0.95 mm body, 0.65 mm lead pitch, surface-mount plastic package with exposed thermal pad not present.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | GND1 | Emiter connection for TR1; common reference node for first transistor's bias network. |
| 2 | I1 | Base input for TR1; accepts logic-level signals directly without external pull-up/down. |
| 3 | O2 | Collector output for TR2; active-high sink/source node for second channel load switching. |
| 4 | GND2 | Emiter connection for TR2; independent ground return path for second transistor. |
| 5 | I2 | Base input for TR2; electrically isolated from I1, enabling dual independent digital control. |
| 6 | O1 | Collector output for TR1; complements O2 for dual-channel discrete logic interfacing. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual NPN RET architecture | Two fully independent, resistor-equipped NPN transistors in one 6-pin SMT package-reduces board area by >40% vs. discrete solutions. |
| Integrated R1/R2 bias network | R1 = 22 kΩ, R2 = 47 kΩ per transistor-eliminates four external resistors and associated placement/inspection steps. |
| Automotive qualification | AEC-Q101 compliant-validated for under-hood and infotainment module use with full temperature range (-40 °C to +150 °C). |
| Low VCE(sat) | ≤150 mV at IC = 10 mA-minimizes power loss and self-heating in battery-powered or thermally constrained designs. |
Applications
| LED Indicator Driver | Microcontroller GPIO Expander |
|---|---|
|
Use Scenario: Driving multiple status LEDs from a microcontroller with limited GPIO current capability. IC Role / Device Role: Dual-channel current-sinking switch that translates 3.3 V/5 V logic outputs into 20–30 mA LED drive paths. Use Value: Eliminates need for eight discrete resistors and two transistors; reduces BOM count and layout area while maintaining consistent brightness via matched hFE. |
Use Scenario: Extending digital I/O capability of an MCU in a compact automotive sensor node. IC Role / Device Role: Level-shifting and current-boosting interface between low-drive MCU pins and higher-load peripherals (e.g., optocouplers, small relays). Use Value: Enables direct connection to 5 V or 3.3 V logic without external bias components; supports AEC-Q101-compliant system certification. |
| Logic-Level Signal Translator | Low-Power Sensor Interface |
|
Use Scenario: Converting open-drain I²C or UART signals between mixed-voltage domains (e.g., 1.8 V MCU ↔ 5 V peripheral). IC Role / Device Role: Bidirectional level translator using active pull-up configuration enabled by internal R2 feedback. Use Value: Provides clean edge transitions and robust noise rejection due to defined VI(on)/VI(off) thresholds (1.1 V / 0.8 V typ), avoiding floating states. |
Use Scenario: Enabling/disabling analog sensor power rails or digital enable lines in portable medical or industrial monitoring devices. IC Role / Device Role: Low-quiescent-current enable switch controlling sensor VCC or shutdown pin with precise threshold control. Use Value: Delivers <100 nA leakage (ICBO) and guaranteed turn-off at VI(off) ≤ 0.8 V-critical for multi-week battery life in always-on sensing nodes. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual NPN resistor-equipped transistor applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| PUMD16 | NPN/PNP complementary pair; different polarity configuration and R1/R2 values (R1 = 10 kΩ, R2 = 10 kΩ). | Suitable for push-pull output stages or level-shifting where complementary drive is required. | Select when bidirectional current sourcing/sinking or rail-to-rail swing is needed-not drop-in for PUMH16's dual-NPN topology. |
| PUMB16 | PNP/PNP RET; identical package but inverted polarity and R1/R2 = 47 kΩ / 22 kΩ. | Used in high-side switching or active-low enable circuits where source-driving is preferred. | Choose only for high-side load control; incompatible with PUMH16's sink-oriented pinout and bias scheme. |
Compared with PUMD16 and PUMB16, the PUMH16 uniquely provides dual NPN topology with asymmetric R1/R2 (22 kΩ / 47 kΩ), optimizing noise immunity and off-state leakage for low-current sink applications-making it irreplaceable in single-supply, ground-referenced digital interface roles.

FAQ
Is PUMH16 pin-compatible with other SOT363-3 dual-transistor packages?
No-PUMH16 has a unique pin assignment (GND1-I1-O2-GND2-I2-O1) optimized for dual NPN sink operation. Competing dual-transistor SOT363-3 parts like PMMBT3904DW or MMDT3904 have different pinouts and no integrated resistors, making them non-interchangeable without PCB redesign.
What is the maximum operating temperature for continuous use?
The PUMH16 supports continuous operation up to +150 °C junction temperature. At ambient temperatures up to +85 °C on a standard FR4 PCB, its 300 mW total power dissipation rating ensures thermal stability without derating-verified per IEC 60134 limiting values and AEC-Q101 thermal cycling tests.
Can PUMH16 be used in 3.3 V logic systems?
Yes-its VI(on) = 1.1 V (typ) and VI(off) = 0.8 V (typ) provide clear logic discrimination for 3.3 V CMOS inputs. With hFE ≥ 80 at IC = 5 mA, it reliably switches 20 mA loads even at 3.3 V supply, confirmed in Nexperia's Fig. 3 and Fig. 4 characterization data.
Does PUMH16 require external decoupling capacitors?
No-its internal resistor network and low capacitance (Cc = 2.5 pF max) eliminate need for external decoupling in typical digital switching applications. However, a 100 nF ceramic capacitor near the VCC rail is recommended if driving inductive loads or operating above 1 MHz switching frequencies.
