Key Features
- Dual NPN and PNP complementary pair in single SOT457 package reducing component count in push-pull and H-bridge circuits
- 50V collector-emitter voltage and 150mA collector current rating for low-voltage switching and amplification applications
- Minimum DC current gain (hFE) of 120 enabling efficient base drive at low control currents
- Compact 6-pin SOT457 SMD package saving board area compared to two discrete SOT-23 transistors
Applications
The PIMZ2,115 is used in complementary push-pull output stages, small-signal H-bridge motor drivers, and audio preamplifier circuits where NPN and PNP transistors with matched 50V and 150mA ratings are required in minimum board space. Its dual-element SOT457 package integrates both transistors in a footprint smaller than two individual SOT-23 devices, making it ideal for portable electronics, LED driver arrays, and low-current relay driver circuits. The minimum hFE of 120 allows direct microcontroller GPIO drive with adequate base current for 150mA load switching.

Frequently Asked Questions
What voltage and current ratings define the PIMZ2,115 transistor pair?
The PIMZ2,115 is rated at a maximum collector-emitter voltage of 50V and a maximum collector current of 150mA per element. With a minimum DC current gain (hFE) of 120, the base drive current required to saturate the transistor into the 150mA load current region is typically below 2mA, making it directly compatible with standard 3.3V or 5V GPIO drive signals.
How does integrating NPN and PNP transistors in PIMZ2,115 benefit complementary circuit designs?
Combining a separate NPN and PNP element in a single SOT457 package eliminates the need for two discrete transistors and their associated PCB footprints. A complementary pair in one 6-pin package reduces board area by approximately 30% to 40% compared to two SOT-23 devices, lowers assembly pick-and-place overhead, and ensures both elements share the same thermal environment for more predictable operating temperatures.
Which small-signal switching and amplification applications suit the PIMZ2,115?
The 50V, 150mA complementary pair is suited for small-signal class AB audio output buffers, low-current H-bridge motor control circuits driving loads below 150mA, LED constant-current driver stages, and signal inversion or level-shifting circuits. The minimum hFE of 120 supports clean switching from microcontroller outputs at 3.3V or 5V without requiring additional driver stages between the MCU GPIO and the transistor base.
How does the SOT457 package compare to two individual SOT-23 packages for the same NPN/PNP function?
The SOT457 package measures approximately 2.9mm x 1.6mm and houses both transistors in 6 pins, whereas two individual SOT-23 packages would each measure 2.9mm x 1.3mm and together occupy nearly double the total PCB footprint plus additional routing space between them. Consolidating into a single SOT457 reduces the total land pattern area and the number of solder joints from 6 per device pair to a single shared footprint with 6 pins.
