BC184L Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The BC184L is a silicon NPN small signal bipolar junction transistor manufactured by On Semiconductor (formerly Fairchild Semiconductor). It is designed for general purpose amplification and switching applications.

 

Key electrical specifications include a maximum collector-emitter voltage (VCEO) of 30 V, a maximum collector current of 500 mA, and a power dissipation of 350 mW at 25°C ambient temperature. The DC current gain (hFE) is a minimum of 130 at 100 mA collector current and 5 V VCE, and a minimum of 100 at 10 µA. The transition frequency (fT) is typically 150 MHz, making it suitable for low to medium frequency applications.

 

The transistor is housed in a TO-92-3 through-hole package with formed leads and a lead spacing of 1.27 mm. The operating junction temperature range is up to 150°C, with a storage temperature range of -55°C to 150°C. The device is RoHS compliant and has an MSL of 1 (unlimited).

 

Typical applications include general purpose amplification, driver stages, and switching circuits for low power requirements. The BC184L is a direct replacement for many classic NPN transistors in TO-92 packages.
