PDTC114EQCZ Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The PDTC114EQCZ is a pre-biased NPN bipolar junction transistor (BJT) manufactured by Nexperia USA Inc. in a 3-XDFN surface mount package with wettable flank. This component integrates internal base and emitter-base resistors, enabling direct logic-level switching applications without external biasing networks. The part is rated for 50 V collector-emitter breakdown voltage and 100 mA maximum collector current with a transition frequency of 230 MHz.

The PDTC114EQCZ carries an Obsolete product status. Identification of equivalent and substitute parts is necessary to maintain design continuity and ensure component availability for new production builds and field replacements.
