Overview
The PDTC144ET,215 is a Single NPN Resistor-Equipped Transistor (RET) manufactured by Nexperia USA Inc. This transistor is housed in a small surface-mount plastic package, specifically the SOT-23 (TO-236AB) package. It is designed to simplify circuit design by incorporating built-in bias resistors, reducing the overall component count and pick-and-place costs. The PDTC144ET,215 is particularly useful in digital applications, including the control of IC inputs and switching loads, and serves as a cost-saving alternative to the BC847/857 series in these contexts. It is also AEC-Q101 qualified, making it suitable for automotive and industrial applications.
