Product details
Overview
RN1908FE(TE85L,F) from Toshiba Electronic Devices & Storage Corporation is a dual NPN bipolar transistor with integrated bias resistors (R1 = 22 kΩ, R2 = 47 kΩ), designed for compact switching and interfacing in space-constrained automotive and industrial control circuits. It features AEC-Q101 qualification, 50 V VCEO, 7 mA IC rating, and ES6 surface-mount package.
For engineers reviewing the RN1908FE(TE85L,F) datasheet, RN1908FE(TE85L,F) pinout, RN1908FE(TE85L,F) application, or RN1908FE(TE85L,F) equivalent, key selection criteria include built-in resistor values, dual-transistor layout, AEC-Q101 compliance status, VCE(sat) ≤ 0.6 V at IC = 5 mA/IB = 0.25 mA, and hFE ≥ 80 at IC = 5 mA/VEB = 7 V.
Technical Context
The RN1908FE(TE85L,F) integrates two identical NPN transistors in a single ES6 package, each with dedicated emitter, base, and collector terminals plus on-chip bias resistors-R1 connected between base and input, R2 between base and emitter. This eliminates external base resistors in digital logic interface and low-power switching designs.
Its electrical behavior is defined by guaranteed hFE ≥ 80 (IC = 5 mA, VEB = 7 V), VCE(sat) ≤ 0.6 V (IC = 5 mA, IB = 0.25 mA), VI(ON) ≤ 2.2 V (IC = 5 mA), and VI(OFF) ≥ 0.5 V (IC = 0.1 mA), enabling reliable turn-on/turn-off control with TTL- and CMOS-level drive signals.
Key Specifications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual NPN bias-resistor transistor applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| RN2908FE(TE85L,F) | P-type complement (dual PNP); same R1/R2 (22 kΩ/47 kΩ), identical ES6 package and pinout | Used where active-high sinking or high-side switching is required instead of NPN low-side drive | Select RN2908FE(TE85L,F) when designing complementary output stages or level-shifting from positive rails |
| EMH11T2R | Single NPN BRT (R1 = 22 kΩ, R2 = 47 kΩ); SOT-363 (SC-70-6) package; no dual configuration | Limited to single-channel use; smaller footprint but requires two devices for dual functionality | Choose EMH11T2R only when board area is more critical than channel count and dual matching is not required |
Compared with RN2908FE(TE85L,F), the RN1908FE(TE85L,F) provides NPN polarity for low-side switching, while EMH11T2R offers identical resistor values in a smaller single-channel package-making RN1908FE(TE85L,F) optimal for space-efficient dual-signal conditioning where polarity and matching matter.

FAQ
What is the absolute maximum collector-emitter voltage for RN1908FE(TE85L,F)?
The absolute maximum collector-emitter voltage (VCEO) for RN1908FE(TE85L,F) is 50 V, as specified in Toshiba's official datasheet Rev.7.0.A. This rating applies to both transistors in the dual package under Ta = 25 °C conditions. Exceeding this voltage-even briefly-may cause irreversible breakdown. The RN1908FE(TE85L,F) is intended for ≤24 V system interfaces where derating ensures long-term reliability.
Does RN1908FE(TE85L,F) support automotive applications?
Yes, RN1908FE(TE85L,F) is AEC-Q101 qualified per Toshiba's orderable part number documentation, confirming compliance with stress tests including temperature cycling, high-temperature reverse bias, and ESD. Its ES6 package and guaranteed parameters across −40°C to +125°C junction temperature make RN1908FE(TE85L,F) suitable for automotive body control modules, provided design margins are applied per Toshiba's Reliability Handbook.
What are the exact bias resistor values inside RN1908FE(TE85L,F)?
RN1908FE(TE85L,F) contains two identical internal resistor networks: R1 = 22 kΩ (base-to-input) and R2 = 47 kΩ (base-to-emitter) for each transistor. These values are confirmed in Table 4 of the Toshiba datasheet and enable direct connection to 3.3 V or 5 V logic without external bias components. No trimming or variation is specified beyond the ±20% tolerance typical for monolithic resistors.
How does the pinout of RN1908FE(TE85L,F) differ from standard dual-transistor packages?
RN1908FE(TE85L,F) uses an asymmetric ES6 pinout: Pins 1/2/6 serve Transistor 1 (E1/B1/C1), while Pins 3/4/5 serve Transistor 2 (C2/E2/B2)-not the conventional E-B-C-E-B-C sequence. This layout allows independent emitter returns and avoids shared node conflicts in differential or push-pull configurations. The RN1908FE(TE85L,F) pin assignment is fixed and non-interchangeable with SO-8 or SOT-363 dual BRTs.
Is RN1908FE(TE85L,F) RoHS compliant and lead-free?
Yes, RN1908FE(TE85L,F) is RoHS compliant and lead-free, as confirmed by Toshiba's environmental documentation and package marking specifications. The "(TE85L,F)" suffix denotes tape-and-reel packaging with lead-free terminations meeting JEDEC J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity level 1. All materials-including mold compound and lead frame-are certified per EU RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU, and full compliance data is available upon request for RN1908FE(TE85L,F).
