The BC212B from onsemi is a PNP silicon amplifier transistor in a TO-92 (TO-226) through-hole package. It is designed for general-purpose amplification and switching in low-power applications.
This transistor provides a collector-emitter breakdown voltage of -50 V, a collector-base breakdown voltage of -60 V, and an emitter-base breakdown voltage of -5 V. Continuous collector current is rated at -100 mA, and total power dissipation is 350 mW at 25°C ambient, rising to 1.0 W at 25°C case temperature. The device operates over a junction temperature range of -55°C to +150°C.
DC current gain ranges from 60 minimum at -2 mA to a typical 120 at -100 mA, with a transition frequency of 280 MHz. Collector-emitter saturation voltage is as low as 0.1 V at -10 mA, making it suitable for low-voltage switching.
The TO-92 package is a cost-effective through-hole option for board layouts requiring manual or wave soldering. Typical applications include signal amplification, small-signal switching, and driver stages in audio and control circuits.
