Key Features
- Complementary NPN + PNP dual transistor pair in a single 6-pin SSMini package, saving 50% board area versus discrete single-transistor solutions
- 100 MHz transition frequency (fT) with minimum DC current gain (hFE) of 120, enabling fast small-signal switching and amplification up to the MHz range
- 40 V collector-emitter breakdown rating and 0.1 A collector current support versatile switching, level-shifting, and driver applications in 3.3 V to 24 V systems
Applications
The PEMZ1 complementary transistor pair is ideal for logic level translation, push-pull driver stages, and small-signal audio amplifier circuits in portable consumer electronics and IoT devices. Its 40 V rating and 100 MHz transition frequency make it suitable for relay driving, LED current control, and general-purpose switching in 5 V to 24 V embedded designs. The compact 6-pin SSMini package integrates two transistors in minimal board space for space-constrained wearable and handheld applications.

Frequently Asked Questions
What are the key electrical ratings of the Nexperia PEMZ1 transistor pair?
The PEMZ1 contains a complementary NPN and PNP bipolar transistor pair, each rated at 0.1 A maximum collector current and 40 V collector-emitter breakdown voltage. The minimum DC current gain (hFE) is 120 and the transition frequency is 100 MHz, making these transistors suitable for small-signal switching and amplification in circuits up to 40 V supply rails.
How does the dual NPN+PNP configuration of PEMZ1 simplify push-pull and complementary circuit designs?
The PEMZ1 integrates matched NPN and PNP transistors in a single 6-pin SSMini package, eliminating the need for two separate discrete transistors in complementary emitter follower or push-pull output stages. This reduces component count by 2 devices, saves PCB area by at least 50%, and simplifies layout for audio output stages, relay drivers, and level-shifting circuits operating between 3.3 V and 24 V rails.
What switching speed and frequency performance can be expected from the PEMZ1 in small-signal applications?
The PEMZ1 transistors have a 100 MHz transition frequency (fT), meaning they maintain useful current gain across signal frequencies up to several tens of MHz in small-signal configurations. With a minimum hFE of 120 and low junction capacitances typical of SSMini small-signal transistors, the PEMZ1 supports switching times in the nanosecond range suitable for logic-level interfacing and audio frequency amplifier stages.
Which package does the PEMZ1 use, and how does it compare to standard SOT-23 packaging for space savings?
The PEMZ1 uses a 6-pin SSMini package (JESD-30 code R-PDSO-F6), which is comparable in footprint to an SOT-363 or SC-88 package with dimensions roughly 2.0 x 2.1 mm. Compared to using two separate SOT-23 transistors each measuring 3.0 x 1.75 mm, the PEMZ1 SSMini housing saves approximately 60% total board area while housing both the NPN and PNP transistors needed for complementary circuit topologies.
