BC546BTF Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The BC546BTF is an NPN bipolar junction transistor manufactured by On Semiconductor. It is designed for general-purpose amplification and switching applications in low-power circuits. The device features a maximum collector-emitter voltage of 65V and a maximum collector current of 100mA, with a power dissipation rating of 500mW.

 

Key electrical characteristics include a minimum DC current gain (hFE) of 200 at a test condition of 2mA collector current and 5V collector-emitter voltage, and a maximum collector-emitter saturation voltage of 600mV at 5mA base current and 100mA collector current. The transistor has a transition frequency of 300MHz, making it suitable for applications requiring moderate frequency response.

 

The device is housed in a TO-226-3 / TO-92-3 (TO-226AA) package with formed leads and is designed for through-hole mounting. The operating junction temperature is rated up to 150°C. This transistor is suitable for use in signal amplification, switching circuits, and other general-purpose low-power applications.
